If the bracelet were \"100\"% gold, it would weigh \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"Weight+=+Volume+%2A+%28grams%2Fcc%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Using the info given in the problem, the volume is \"15cc\" and gold weighs \"19.3%28g%2Fcc%29%7D%7D%0D%0A%0D%0AThus+%7B%7B%7BWeight+=+15+%2A+19.3+=+289.5\" for a pure gold bracelet. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This one weighs only \"238\". So it is 'less than \"18k\" gold' and the bracelet is \"not\" really 18-Karat Gold
