Answer: Divide purity units by the number of units that represents 100% purity, then multiple by 100. The answer will be the percentage purity.

For example: If a piece of gold contains 18 units of gold and 100% pure gold is 24 units, then we can calculate the purity of the gold piece as follows: 18/24 = .75 * 100 = 75% purity.
