The video tutorial covers two math problems. The first problem involves calculating the distance a plane travels at a constant cruising speed of 570 miles per hour over seven hours. The second problem involves determining the total snow accumulation over ten hours, given a constant rate of 4/5 inch per hour. Both problems are solved using multiplication and conversion of units.
