Conversion Formulas

The mathematics behind odds conversion

Decimal → Probability

P = (1 ÷ D) × 100

2.50 → (1 ÷ 2.50) × 100 = 40%

Probability → Decimal

D = 100 ÷ P

40% → 100 ÷ 40 = 2.50

Decimal → American

D ≥ 2: (D-1) × 100 D < 2: -100 ÷ (D-1)

2.50 → (2.50 - 1) × 100 = +150

Decimal → Fractional

F = (D - 1) / 1

2.50 → (2.50 - 1) / 1 = 3/2

Understanding Odds Formats

🔢

Decimal Odds

Total return per $1 bet. Odds of 2.50 means $2.50 return ($1.50 profit). Popular in Europe, Australia, and Canada.

2.50 = $2.50 return on $1 bet

Fractional Odds

Profit vs stake ratio. 3/2 means $3 profit for every $2 wagered. Traditional format used in UK and Ireland.

3/2 = $3 profit per $2 stake
🇺🇸

American Odds

Shows profit on $100 (+odds) or stake needed to win $100 (-odds). Used primarily in the United States.

+150 = $150 profit on $100 bet
📊

Implied Probability

The chance of winning according to the odds. Includes bookmaker margin, so actual probability may differ.

40% = 4 in 10 chance

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Decimal odds show your total return for every $1 bet. For example, odds of 2.50 mean you get $2.50 back for every $1 bet (including your stake). Popular in Europe, Australia, and Canada.
American odds show how much you need to bet to win $100 (negative odds like -150) or how much you win from a $100 bet (positive odds like +150). Used primarily in the United States.
Fractional odds like 3/1 show your profit relative to your stake. 3/1 means you win $3 for every $1 bet. Traditional format used in UK and Ireland.
Implied probability is the chance of an outcome happening according to the odds. Lower odds = higher probability. It includes the bookmaker margin, so actual probability may be different.
For decimal to probability: divide 1 by decimal odds and multiply by 100. For decimal to American: if odds ≥ 2, multiply (odds - 1) by 100. If odds < 2, divide -100 by (odds - 1).
Bookmaker margin (also called vig, juice, or overround) is the built-in profit for the bookmaker. If you add up implied probabilities and get more than 100%, the difference is the margin.
Bookmakers set odds based on their own analysis, risk exposure, and desired margin. Sharp bettors compare odds across bookmakers to find the best value.
