Format Definitions - Odds and Probabilities

There are 3 methods of stating odds that most bookmakers and websites support. Implied Probability is also useful when evaluating a bet or checking how likely an outcome is. Fractions Used primarily in the UK and Ireland, fractions quote the potential profit should the bet succeed relative to the stake. For example, if £5 is bet at odds of 2/1 the potential profit is £10 (£5 * 2) and the total returned is £15 (£10 plus the £5 stake). Decimals Decimals quote the potential return should the bet succeed relative to the stake. For example, if £5 is bet at odds of 3 the total returned is £15 (£5 * 3) the potential profit is £10 (£5 * 3 minus the £5 stake). American - Moneyline Positive figures: The odds state the winnings on a £100 bet e.g. american odds of 110 would win £110 on a £100 bet. Negative figures: The odds state how much must be bet to win £100 profit e.g. american odds of -120 would win £100 on a £120 bet. Implied Probability Odds correlate to probability e.g a 3/1 bet is expected to win one in every 4 attempts. Hence the probability is 25%.

Fraction - (1 divided by (the percentage divided by 100)) minus 1 e.g. a probability of 25% = (1 / (25 / 100)) - 1 = 3 = 3/1. - (1 divided by (the percentage divided by 100)) minus 1 e.g. a probability of 25% = (1 / (25 / 100)) - 1 = 3 = 3/1. American: Positive odds - (100 divided by (the percentage divided by 100)) minus 100 e.g. a probability of 10% = (100 / (10 / 100)) - 100 = 900. Negative odds - The probability divided by (1 minus (the probability divided by 100)) then multiply by -1 to convert into a negative e.g. a probability of 60% = (60 / (1 - (60/100))) * -1 = -150. How do you convert american odds to decimal? Positive odds - 1 plus (the american odds divided by 100) e.g. american odds of 300 = 1 + (300/100) = 4. - 1 plus (the american odds divided by 100) e.g. american odds of 300 = 1 + (300/100) = 4. Negative odds - 1 minus (100 divided by the american odds) e.g. american odds of -300 = 1 - (100/-300) = 1.333. How do you convert american odds to fractional?
