In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Knowing how much your gold is worth is great information to have as you begin the process of selling it. There is an exact formula for calculating the per-gram value of your scrap gold, and the only variable factor in the equation is the current market price of gold. You can find the current price by searching the Internet or looking it up in your local newspaper. Gold is valued per troy ounce, with a troy ounce equaling 31.1 grams. The price of gold fluctuates hourly according to supply and demand, so the price may be very different in the afternoon from the price you saw in the morning. It is best to use the Internet for updates, which you can even do while standing at the gold buyer's counter by using your cell phone's Internet access capabilities. For example, if today's price per ounce is USD$1,600, then today's price per gram is USD$51.45 (USD$1,600/31.1). by the fineness of the gold. For each group of gold, divide the karat by 24, then multiply that number by today's gold price per gram. For example, if you have 10K gold and the current price of gold is USD$1,600 per ounce or USD$51.45 per gram ($1,600/31.1), then the price of your scrap gold is USD$51.45 x .4167 = USD$21.44 per gram. Use the following conversions to value your gold.  10k = 10/24 = .4167 14k = 14/24 = .5833 18k = 18/24 = .750 22k = 22/24 = .9167 The gold still has to go through an assay process to determine the true percentage of gold. For example, 14kt gold assayed is .575%. When you melt gold you will lose weight due to alloys used in the making process. Assaying is a process wherein a sample of the gold is taken from the whole to be processed and assessed for purity. The sample is melted, separated, and weighed to reach a conclusion about its purity. If you have 10 grams of 10K gold and you calculated the price at USD$21.44 per gram, then your scrap gold is worth 10 x USD$21.44 = USD$214.40. Some examples:  If you have 5 grams of 14K scrap and gold is USD$1,600.00 today, then USD$1,600 divided by 31.1 would equal USD$51.45. That figure, multiplied by .5833 (14K) comes out to USD$30.01 per gram. USD$30.01 multiplied by 5 grams equals USD$150.05. If you have 15.3 grams of 10K gold scrap, USD$1,600 divided by 31.1 equals USD$51.45, and that amount multiplied by .4167 (10K) equals USD$21.44 per gram. USD$21.44 multiplied by 15.3 grams equals USD$328.02. Most people use grams for these calculations but some gold buyers use pennyweight (DWT) instead of grams. There are 20 pennyweights in a troy ounce. You can substitute 20 for 31.1 to calculate pennyweight in our formula. You can also multiply a pennyweight by 1.555 to get an equivalent gram weight or divide a gram weight by the same 1.555 to get pennyweight.
Summary: Determine the current price of gold. Divide today's gold price in dollars per ounce by 31.1 to get today's gold price per gram. Multiply Go through the assaying process to be sure of the gold's value. Multiply the price per gram by the weight in grams.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Keep mixing until the color is uniform and there are no unmixed streaks. Set the dressing aside, preferably in the fridge, so that it's nice and cold. Make sure that you are using the smooth kind of salsa and not the chunky kind; do not use pico de gallo. Place a large skillet onto the stove, and turn the heat up to medium-high. Add the beef, and use a wooden spoon or spatula to break it up. Cook the meat, stirring occasionally, until it turns brown and starts to crumble. Tear open the package of taco seasoning, and pour it into a cup. Add the water, and mix the two together using a fork or mini whisk. Stir the meat occasionally to help the flavors mix and the meat to cook evenly. This will prevent your salad from wilting or becoming too soggy. Save the rest of the cheese for garnishing, and do not add the chips yet. To prevent the salad from getting too soggy, make sure that the meat is cool and drained. The beans and tomatoes should also be drained.  You don't have to include all of the ingredients. If you don't like olives, leave them out! If you don't like beans, consider using corn instead. You can add some extra ingredients as well, such as chopped avocado or diced onion. Anything that could be found in a taco will work. You can do this using a pair of salad tongs, or two large spoons. Scoop the salad from the bottom of the bowl, and drop it back gently on top. Keep doing this until the dressing is evenly distributed throughout the salad. You can tuck the chips around the sides of the bowl, or you can keep them separate, so that people can grab them as they please; not everyone enjoys soggy chips! You can garnish the salad with and additional cup (cc grams) of salsa.
Summary: Mix the salsa and sour cream together in a small bowl using a fork or mini whisk, then set it aside. Cook the ground sirloin over medium-high heat. Mix the water and taco seasoning in a cup. Pour the seasoning into the skillet, lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain the beef, then set it aside to cool. Put the beef, lettuce, tomatoes, beans, olives, and half of the cheese into a large bowl. Add the dressing, and toss the salad. Garnish the salad with the rest of the cheese, and serve it with tortilla chips.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Follow the line of the clamp to unsure an even cut. Work slowly and methodically.  You may have to trace out this line 3-4 times to get a nice, deep score. Note that you aren't trying to cut through the bottle, just create a nice, even line.
Summary:
Using a sharp, precision knife, score the bottle by following your tracing line.
