Lego Construction Word Problems

The video tutorial teaches how to solve two-step word problems using addition and subtraction. It uses a Lego building scenario where Emmett uses 900 Legos to build a police station, a fire station, and a school. The video guides through setting up the problem, adding the known values for the fire station and school, and then subtracting from the total to find the Legos used for the police station. The solution is verified by adding the values back to ensure they total 900 Legos.
