Solving a multi step equation using distributive property

The video tutorial explains how to solve for the variable V in an equation. It begins by discussing the need to isolate the variable and simplify both sides of the equation. The distributive property is applied to eliminate parentheses, and variables are aligned on one side to avoid negative numbers. Inverse operations are used to further isolate V, and the solution is verified by substituting back into the original equation.
