The video tutorial explains how to compute a sum by evaluating a sequence of terms. It begins by introducing the concept of a sequence and the process of plugging in values to compute each term. The tutorial then demonstrates the step-by-step calculation of each term, from a sub 1 to a sub 5, using powers of integers. Finally, it shows how to add all the computed terms to arrive at the final sum of 701.
