If only one tank is leaking, there will be more water in that tank, water from the bottom of that tank up to the outlet pipe, and half the amount greater than fills up to that outlet pipe, with the other half flowing through the connecting pipe to the other tank.
If both tanks are leaking, and one is leaking greater than the other, I will only find this out after I seal the top of the leaking tank, or the tank that leaks more.
The right hand tank had more of the 1 pint in it, (there was very little in the left tank) so I will start by sealing the top of the right hand tank.
I further deduce that to fill an empty tank up to the outlet pipe needs just over 1 pint, which seems about right.
