⚡ Instant Calculated Answer

500 grams of 9K gold contains exactly 187.5 grams (6.0283 troy ounces) of pure fine gold, with an intrinsic scrap melt value of approximately $16,276.41 USD at $2,700/oz t.

6.0283 oz t Primary Metric
187.5 g Fine Au Secondary Metric

📐 Mathematical Formula & Step-by-Step Substitution

\[ W_{fine} = W_{gross} \cdot \left(\frac{9}{24}\right) = 500 \cdot 0.3750 = 187.5 \text{ g} = 6.0283 \text{ oz t} \]
Fine_Weight = 500g * (9/24) = 187.5g = 6.0283 oz t
  1. Determine fineness ratio of 9K gold: 9 / 24 = 0.3750 (or 375.0‰ millesimal fineness).
  2. Multiply gross weight by fineness: 500 g × 0.3750 = 187.5 grams of fine elemental gold (Au).
  3. Convert grams to troy ounces (1 oz t = 31.1034768 g): 187.5 / 31.1034768 = 6.0283 troy ounces.
  4. Convert grams to tolas (1 tola = 11.6638 g): 187.5 / 11.6638 = 16.0754 tolas.
