The video tutorial explains how to solve a problem involving two rectangles, where one rectangle is framed by another. The task is to find the area of the shaded region, which is the frame. The process involves calculating the area of the interior rectangle first, then determining the overall area of the large rectangle (frame included), and finally subtracting the interior area from the total to find the frame's area. The video emphasizes understanding the dimensions and careful reading of the problem statement.
