Answer: Large Box: 18.75 kilograms

Small Box: 15.75 kilograms

Explanation:

l=large box. s=small box

5l+3s=141

7l+9s=273

(5l+3s=141)*3

15l+9s=423 ==> subtract this equation

7l+9s=273 ==> subtract this equation

8l=150 ==> subtract the two above equations

l=150/8

l=18.75

5(18.75)+3s=141

93.75+3s=141

93.75+3s=141.00

3s=47.25

s=15.75

Large Box: 18.75 kilograms

Small Box: 15.75 kilograms
