The video tutorial explains how to solve for X in an equation. It begins by identifying the operations applied to X, such as addition and multiplication. The tutorial then demonstrates how to undo these operations, starting with subtraction to remove the addition, followed by division to eliminate the multiplication. The process ensures the equation remains balanced by applying the same operations to both sides. The final result is finding the value of X.
