The video tutorial explains how to solve a word problem involving fractions of a set. It uses Sean's song collection as an example, where 63 classical songs represent 7/8 of his entire collection. The tutorial guides viewers through understanding the problem, modeling it with a bar diagram, and calculating the total number of songs. The solution involves dividing 63 by 7 to find one unit and then multiplying by 8 to find the total collection, resulting in 72 songs.
