The mule was carrying 5 sacks and the donkey was carrying 7
sacks.

Let's assume that the mule was carrying M sacks and the
donkey was carrying D sacks.

As the donkey told the mule, "If you gave me one of your
sacks I'd have double what you have."

D + 1 = 2 * (M-1)

D + 1 = 2M - 2

D = 2M - 3

The donkey also said, "If I give you one of my sacks we'd
have an even amount."

D - 1 = M + 1

D = M + 2

Comparing both the equations,

2M - 3 = M + 2

M = 5

Substituting M=5 in any of above equation, we get D=7

Hence, the mule was carrying 5 sacks and the donkey was
carrying 7 sacks.
