Convert 2 to 8 Odds to Probability

2 to 8 Odds means that there are 2 chances of one outcome and 8 chances of a different outcome.

We will call these different outcomes A and B. Thus, there are 2 A's and 8 B's in 2 to 8 Odds.

2 to 8 Odds can be written as a ratio of 2/8. 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 2 to 8 Odds numbers into the formulas, we get:

(2/(2+8))*100 = 20.00%
(8/(2+8))*100 = 80.00%

Therefore, 2 to 8 Odds converts to the following Probabilities:

20.00% Probability of A

80.00% Probability of B

So instead of saying 2 to 8 Odds, you could say that there is a 20.00% Probability.
