Pure Gold is 24 Karats So 14/24 is .58333333 pure gold times 2.6 gives
As per the gold standard, the purest form of gold will have 24 karats.
The given chain has 14 karat gold.
Therefore, the percentage of pure gold = 14/24 = 0.5833 or 58.33%
If the total chain weighs 2.8 ounces, then the total weight if gold in the chain = 0.5833*2.8 ounces (since the % of pure gold is only 58.33%)
The total weight if gold in the chain = 0.5833*2.8 = 1.633... = 1.63 ounces (Rounded to two decimal places)
