Convert 1 to 85 Odds to Probability

1 to 85 Odds means that there are 1 chances of one outcome and 85 chances of a different outcome.

We will call these different outcomes A and B. Thus, there are 1 A's and 85 B's in 1 to 85 Odds.

1 to 85 Odds can be written as a ratio of 1/85. Instead of a ratio, Probability shows the percent chance of the outcomes A and B.

The two formulas to convert Odds to Probabilities are as follows

(A/(A+B))*100 = A%
(B/(A+B))*100 = B%

When we plug the 1 to 85 Odds numbers into the formulas, we get:

(1/(1+85))*100 = 1.16%
(85/(1+85))*100 = 98.84%

Therefore, 1 to 85 Odds converts to the following Probabilities:

1.16% Probability of A

98.84% Probability of B

So instead of saying 1 to 85 Odds, you could say that there is a 1.16% Probability.
