As simply as possible:

Bitcoin miners verify the validity of a Bitcoin transaction block by correctly guessing the number that passes through a hash function thus confirming the transaction. The correct number could be any integer between 0 – 4,294,967,296.

Basically your computer just guesses as fast as it can until it hits the right number.
