The video tutorial explains how to combine simple events to determine all possible outcomes. It uses examples of tossing two coins and rolling two dice to illustrate the concept. For the coin toss, there are four possible outcomes: HH, HT, TH, and TT. For the dice roll, there are 36 possible outcomes, as each die can show a number from 1 to 6. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the combination of outcomes and how each event contributes to the total possibilities.
