  1. if you have an object (1 kg for example) and 750 g of them it's only gold and rest of 250 g other metals(Silver or cheap metals) then this 750 it's title.

    Pure gold has 24 K  then 18 K its

    18/24= 3/4 = 0.75 or 750 title.


  2. The numbers are each different ways of stating the purity of the gold or other precious metal.



    The decimal numbers are in thousandths, so 750 is 0.750, 75% gold and 25% other metals.  Similarly, the K system measures purity in 24ths.  24K gold is pure gold, 18K gold is 18/24, or 3/4 pure gold.

    You can convert between the two systems.  To convert K to decimal, divide the K rating by 24.    To convert decimal to K, multiply the decimal fraction 0.x*x by 24.
