Profit made by jeweler from buying and reselling ounces of gold is 140.89 per ounce

Solution:

Given that

Price at which jeweler buy gold = 1235.55 per ounce

Price at which jeweler resells gold = 1376.44 per ounce

We need to calculate profit.

Buying price of 1 ounce of gold = 1235.55

Reselling price of 1 ounce of gold = 1376.44

Profit = Reselling price – buying price

So profit on 1 ounce of gold = 1376.44 – 1235.55 = 140.89

Hence profit made by Buying and Selling gold will be 140.89 per ounce
