There's actually a formula that will help answer this question and others like it. It all begins from the fact that 24 karat gold is 100 percent pure gold, meaning that any other karat markings must be divided by 24 in order to arrive at the correct percentage of pure gold. In the case of 18 karat gold, for example: 18/24 = .750 = 75 percent pure gold. To find out more about gold, see Zoara's Gold Learning Center.
