Our odds converter tool can help you convert fraction odds to decimals and vice versa. We’ve also used our betting knowledge to help you understand how this works and will explain how to do this without the tool.
How to Convert Fraction Odds to Decimals
Convert a fraction odd into a decimal odd by dividing the first number (the numerator), by the second number (the denominator), and adding 1.
Equation: (numerator/denominator) + 1 = decimal odds
Example: 6/5
is equal to 2.20. Divide 6 by 5. This equals 1.20. Add 1, and you had the decimal 2.20.
How To Convert Decimal Odds To Fractional
There are two steps to convert decimal odds into a fraction.
Step 1) Convert decimals odds into a fraction by subtracting 1, and using 1 as the denominator.
Example: 3.40 – 1 = 2.40. This creates the decimal odds of 2.40/1. While this is a perfectly good fraction, bookmakers never use numbers with decimal points in fractionals. That is why we need step two.
Step 2) We now need to turn this fraction into its most simple form. Find the nearest whole integer (i.e. no decimal place). The factor to which you need to multiply the numerator to the whole integer is reflected in the denominator.
Example: You need to multiply 2.40 by 5 before it becomes a rounded number, 12. Therefore the fraction becomes 12/5. (
2.40 x 2 = 4.80, 2.40 x 3 = 7.20, 2.40 * 4 = 9.60, 2.40 * 5 = 12)
How To Convert American Odds To Decimal
To convert American odds into decimals might seem like a tricky concept, but you’ll be pleased to hear that we found the process relatively simple. Below, you’ll find a couple of examples for converting American odds into decimals.
Positive American Odds To Decimal
For positive American odds, you’ll have to divide the money line by 100, before adding 1. Below, you’ll see an example of this process.
- American Odds of +250.
- 250/100 = 2.50
- 2.50 + 1.00 = 3.50
Negative American Odds To Decimal
For negative American odds, you should disregard the negative symbol in front of the odds for calculating it into a decimal. You’ll need to divide 100 by the American odds, before adding 1.
- American Odds of -130.
- 100/130 = 0.76
- 0.76 + 1.00 = 1.76
How to Work Out Implied Probability From Fractional Odds
Divide the second number (denominator) by the total of the first number (numerator) and second number (denominator).
Equation: Denominator / (numerator+ denominator ) * 100 = implied probability
Example: 4/1 implied probability can be calculated as 1 / (4+1) * 100 = 20%
How to Work Out Implied Probability From Decimal Odds
Divide 1 by the decimal, and multiply it by 100%.
Equation: (1/ decimal odds) * 100 = implied probability
Example: 1 /4.00 * 100 = 25% Find other
