Answer:

One gram of gold sample will contain \frac{90}{100}=0.9g of gold
Number of moles of gold =\frac{Mass\; of \;gold}{Atomic\; mass\; of\; gold}
=\frac{0.9}{197}
=0.0046
One mole of gold contains N_{A}  atoms =6.022\times 10^{23}
\therefore0.0046mole of gold will contain =0.0046\times 6.022\times10^{23}atoms
                                                                   =2.77\times10^{21}atoms
