How many troy ounces of fine gold are in 15 grams of 10K gold?

⚡ Instant Calculated Answer

15 grams of 10K gold contains exactly 6.25 grams (0.2009 troy ounces) of pure fine gold, with an intrinsic scrap melt value of approximately $542.43 USD at $2,700/oz t.

0.2009 oz t Primary Metric
6.25 g Fine Au Secondary Metric

📐 Mathematical Formula & Step-by-Step Substitution

\[ W_{fine} = W_{gross} \cdot \left(\frac{10}{24}\right) = 15 \cdot 0.4167 = 6.25 \text{ g} = 0.2009 \text{ oz t} \]
Fine_Weight = 15g * (10/24) = 6.25g = 0.2009 oz t
  1. Determine fineness ratio of 10K gold: 10 / 24 = 0.4167 (or 416.7‰ millesimal fineness).
  2. Multiply gross weight by fineness: 15 g × 0.4167 = 6.25 grams of fine elemental gold (Au).
  3. Convert grams to troy ounces (1 oz t = 31.1034768 g): 6.25 / 31.1034768 = 0.2009 troy ounces.
  4. Convert grams to tolas (1 tola = 11.6638 g): 6.25 / 11.6638 = 0.5358 tolas.
