Let's say you use layout_width="wrap_content" and layout_weight="1". The
calculation then goes something like this:

-- Start with the screen width (e.g., 480)
-- Subtract the space needed for all of the buttons with their wrapped
content
-- Divide up the remainder according to the layout weight (and, if you
have 5 buttons all with weight 1, they'll each get 20% of the space)

If you use layout_width="0", you skip the second step above (or, more
accurately, it subtracts 0 five times from the screen width).
