To find Kelly's profit in July, we can calculate it based on her profit in June.

Kelly's profit in June was $100.50.

In July, her profit was \( \frac{7}{10} \) of the profit in June. We can calculate it as follows:

\[
\text{Profit in July} = \frac{7}{10} \times \text{Profit in June}
\]

Substituting the values:

\[
\text{Profit in July} = \frac{7}{10} \times 100.50
\]

Calculating that:

\[
\text{Profit in July} = \frac{7 \times 100.50}{10} = \frac{703.5}{10} = 70.35
\]

Thus, Kelly's profit in July was **$70.35**.
