Weigh the item in your hand Example: You have a 9 ct ring that weighs 8 grams. What will it weigh in 18 ct? 2. Identify the metal of the item in your hand in the left column. Solution: Along the horizontal row marked “9 ct” and in the vertical column 3. Move you finger across the row until you reach the vertical column under the heading “18 ct” we find the factor 1.34 under the metal you want to use. Therefore: 8 grams x 1.34 = 10.72 grams in 18 ct 4. Multiply the weight of the item you hold by the number in that box.
