How can I find a record in book LDS #0642774, vol 15 1876-024?
This is a marriage record for Henrik and Johanna Adler but I don’t know how to find the book and see the reference. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

If you are referring to Film Number 624774, you can find it at this reference.
The records are not indexed meaning they cannot be searched by name. You will need to browse the images on the digitized film by clicking on the camera icon.

It took a little bit of browsing, but found it: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9Q97-YSQX-D3S?i=156&cat=256275 (Film # 004485272 image 157 of 401).
(From image 155: Copy of the register of marriages for the year 1876 in the unified orthodox Jewish congregation of Miskolcz.)
Page 59, line 24.

As for how I found it: I started by copying the film number from your post (642774) and pasting it into the "Film/Fiche/..." field on the Search - Catalog page (https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog). After a bit of a double-take on the result (causing me to go back to your post to see that no, there wasn't anything in it to preclude the result being correct), I went to the Miskolc Jewish congregation's catalog page (https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/256275), found the film number, saw that it covers the right type and date range ("Házasultak [marriages] 1851-1895 -- Hallotak [deaths] 1879"), and clicked the camera. I have enough experience with both these records specifically and others like them to know that it's archive copies/extracts, and they're done in year chunks, with a header page between them. So I counted header-looking thumbnails and did spot-checks until I found 1876, then looked for the numbers "15" and "24", and found them under the latter.
(I don't know what the "Volume 15" in your citation refers to. Did it come from JewishGen? They often have such numbers recorded that do not seem to correspond to anything on the FamilySearch end. It must've had something to do with their indexing process.)
