Answer:

The capacity of smaller cooler = 7.5 gallons

The capacity of bigger cooler = 37.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let smaller cooler's capacity be x gallons

Hence

Larger cooler's capacity will be 5x gallons

Together, they will hold 45 gallons, thus we can write:

x + 5x = 45

Solving:

x + 5x = 45

6x = 45

x = 45/6 = 7.5

And 5x = 5(7.5) = 37.5

The capacity of smaller cooler = 7.5 gallons

The capacity of bigger cooler = 37.5 gallons
