Given information

Cooler A was refrigerated for several hours before they were packed in the cooler, while the drinks in cooler B were at room temperature when they were packed.

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

Drinks in cooler A were refrigerated for several hours, So cooler B has more thermal energy than drinks in cooler B. The temperature difference between drinks in cooler A and ice is less than the temperature difference between drinks in cooler A and ice. More thermal energy was exchanged between the drinks and ice in cooler B, which resulted in more melting.
