there are a number of commercially avilable products that test the purity of gold (the Carat) from that you can extrapalate the percentage.
9 carat = 37.5%
on the otherhand if it's recenlty made in a developed country it will be marked. (9ct or 9k)
24 carat gold is from 90% to 99.9% gold.

Gold jewelry is marked in karats. 24 karats is pure gold. Take the listed amount in karats, divide by 24 and multiply by 100.
no, gold does not always need a number on it. most gold pieces don't, some like rings and other few thing might have a number saying how much karates it has but it can still be real gold if it doesnt have a number. :)
The worth of gold is only determined by the karats and the ounce, so to determine the worth of gold you would not only have to know the amount of gold but also the karat
24 carat gold is from 90% to 99.9% gold.
58.5% Gold is 14K.

575 means that it's 57.5% gold. That's 14 karats. there are 24 karats in pure gold....then that number decreases as you add other materials to the gold.

well... it depends on how many karats the gold is... -_-
pure gold has 0 karats, but 24 karat gold is the purest gold you can buy, as it is 24 parts gold
Karats is purity, not weight.
Can't say it's better. But 17 karats has more gold content than 14 karats. The more gold contents = more value & more expensive!
because of how many karats of gold like 24 karats is very expensive and 12 karats is cheaper
