Answer:

The jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a jeweler had a fixed amount of gold to make bracelets and necklaces, and the amount of gold in each bracelet is 6 grams and the amount of gold in each necklace is 16 grams, knowing that the jeweler used 178 grams of gold and made 7 more necklaces than bracelets, to determine a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of bracelets made and the number of necklaces made, the following mathematical reasoning should be considered:

(16 - 6) x 7 = 70

178 - 70 = 108

108/6 = 18

18 - 7 = 11

(11 x 6) + (7 x 16) = X

66 + 112 = X

178 = X

Thus, the jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.
