Tbh you would find you answer much easier if you posted a simple math question help thread. People line up to answer your problems.


I feel like I'd get a better understanding with users here because of the verbage compared to people who know math but not the ins and outs of this particular case.

And if it's + odds you just multiply times the number you want to be

Wanna bet 100 @ +150 would mean 100 x 1.5 is what you would win so $150 plus your 100 back


The reason you can do this is because of law of proportions

For @-110 odds to tell you how much you'll win

(110/100) = (132.54/x)

Then cross multiply

110x = 13254

X= 120.49

Essentially dividing amount you want to bet by 1.1 in less steps


Just to expound the formula

(Odds of your bet/100) = (amount of your bet/amount won)

Make odds of your bet the denominator if + odds

With the above formula you can calculate how much you should bet to win a certain amount or how much you'll win if you bet a certain number

I am starting to wonder if anyone in this forum passed any math classes in school.
