pure gold is 24K, so
22K gold is 22/24 = .917
18K gold is 18/24 = .750
14K gold is 14/24 = .583
The problem clearly has a typo when it mentions 18K gold.
A 22K statue the same weight as a 14K statue contains more gold. The difference is
(22-14)/24 * 73.5
or, given all the numbers presented above,
73.5(.917-.583)
22K gold is 22/24 = .917
18K gold is 18/24 = .750
14K gold is 14/24 = .583
