Using a dataset of of annihilation data collected with the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between 4178 and 4226 MeV, we have measured the absolute branching fraction of the leptonic decay via , and find , where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. The precision is improved by a factor of 2 compared to the previous best measurement. Combining with from lattice quantum chromodynamics calculations or the from the CKMfitter group, we extract and , respectively. Combining our result with the world averages of and , we obtain the ratio of the branching fractions , which is consistent with the standard model prediction of lepton flavor universality.
