Distribute to Solve an Equation

The video tutorial explains how to solve a standardized math test question by distributing terms in an equation. It begins with distributing 2/3 to both terms inside the parentheses, then isolating the variable W by subtracting 2 from both sides. The solution involves multiplying by the reciprocal of 2/3 to solve for W, resulting in a mixed number answer of 7 1/2.
