4 and 0, well done Cheezy!!



I have 1 question. I was going to come on here and say Green Bay was going to beat Seattle. If I had done that, I would have been right. So I would have been 1 and 0 on the year, so I would have been 100%. That means I would have won the pool, right?

With OP's math skills, you never know. Maybe.

WTC in the last football pool in the old UJ:
"PERCENTAGES WIN FOOTBALL POOLS! NOT TOTAL WINS!"

WTC now:
"TOTAL WINS WIN FOOTBALL POOLS! NOT PERCENTAGES!"

Also WTC now:
"TOTAL WINS WIN FOOTBALL POOLS BECAUSE OF MONEYLINES AND VIGS!"

How Do You Calculate a Winning Percentage with Ties?
If your favorite field hockey team had a few ties in the mix, then the formula is not as straightforward, and may require a few more in-depth calculations. Essentially, a tie is a half of a win.

The winning percentage = (wins + 0.5 x ties) / games

The formula uses wins, losses, and ties. Let’s say your favorite baseball team played 54 games, won 48, lost four, and tied two. You can work their winning percentage out using the formula below.

1. Identify their wins
Wins = games (54) – ties (2) – losses (4) = 48 wins

2. You know your favorite team won 48 games. Add 48 to half of the ties.
Wins (48) + 0.5 x ties (2) = 48 + 0.5 x 2 = 49

3. Identify the total number of games, then divide the number you got by it
49 / 54 = 90.7 percent
