The jeweler is rich after buying (and then selling) #75# ounces of gold in that month.

The difference between selling and purchasing:

#$1376.44-$1235.55=$140.89#

How many ounces #(x)# of gold is worth #$10566.75?#

#x*$140.89=$10566.75#

#x=($10566.75)/($140.89)#

#x=75# ounces.

He bought and sold #75# ounces of gold.
