Solving a literal equation using the formula for perimeter

The video tutorial explains how to solve for the variable w in the equation P = 2l + 2w. The instructor guides through the process of isolating w by first subtracting 2l from both sides and then dividing by 2. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the role of each variable and the importance of isolating the desired variable. The solution is left in a simplified form, and the instructor encourages questions for further clarification.
