Answer 1

143 cards, you can find this using the LCM or least common multiple.

Answer 2

143

Explanation:

We are given that

Jackson stationary sells cards in one pack=11

Number of envelops in one pack=13

We have to determine the minimum number of cards bought by Jackson if if she wants the same number of each .

In order to find the minimum number of cards then we will find the lcm of 11 and 13.

LCM (11,13)=
`11* 13=143`

Hence, LCM of (11,13)=143

Therefore, the minimum number of cards bought by Jackson=143
