#60# Quarts.

Explanation:

There are #4# quarts in #1# gallon.

Since there are #5# gallons in each cooler, you multiply #5# and the number of coolers, which is #3#.

#5# #*# #3# #=# #15#

There are #15# gallons in each cooler.
To find how many how many quarts are in each cooler, you multiply how many gallons there are in each cooler (#5#) and the number of quarts in #1# gallon (#4# quarts)

#5# #*# #4# #=# #20#

Now, to find out the total number of quarts all #3# coolers hold, you multiply the number of coolers, #3#, and the number of quarts in each cooler, #20#.

#20# #*# #3# #=# #60#

#60# is our final answer. There are #60 # quarts in all #3# coolers.

Hope it helps (:
