Convert 40 to 5 Odds to Probability

40 to 5 Odds means that there are 40 chances of one outcome and 5 chances of a different outcome.

We will call these different outcomes A and B. Thus, there are 40 A's and 5 B's in 40 to 5 Odds.

40 to 5 Odds can be written as a ratio of 40/5. 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 40 to 5 Odds numbers into the formulas, we get:

(40/(40+5))*100 = 88.89%
(5/(40+5))*100 = 11.11%

Therefore, 40 to 5 Odds converts to the following Probabilities:

88.89% Probability of A

11.11% Probability of B

So instead of saying 40 to 5 Odds, you could say that there is a 88.89% Probability.
