0.4421 oz t Primary Metric
13.75 g Fine Au Secondary Metric

📐 Mathematical Formula & Step-by-Step Substitution

\[ W_{fine} = W_{gross} \cdot \left(\frac{22}{24}\right) = 15 \cdot 0.9167 = 13.75 \text{ g} = 0.4421 \text{ oz t} \]
Fine_Weight = 15g * (22/24) = 13.75g = 0.4421 oz t
  1. Determine fineness ratio of 22K gold: 22 / 24 = 0.9167 (or 916.7‰ millesimal fineness).
  2. Multiply gross weight by fineness: 15 g × 0.9167 = 13.75 grams of fine elemental gold (Au).
  3. Convert grams to troy ounces (1 oz t = 31.1034768 g): 13.75 / 31.1034768 = 0.4421 troy ounces.
  4. Convert grams to tolas (1 tola = 11.6638 g): 13.75 / 11.6638 = 1.1789 tolas.
