I'm wondering if 24k gold is actually 100% pure gold, or if it's just a marketing term used to describe gold that's very close to being pure but not quite there. Is 24k gold 100% gold?

Any other type of gold karat is calculated by its percentage out of 21.

For example, 18k gold is 18 parts gold out of 24, making it 75% pure.
