    Total games won / Total games played = Winning percentage

    Total games lost / Total games played = Losing percentage

    Winning percentage + Losing percentage = 1.00

    **Assuming no ties**

    For ties add a half, for example,

    Record is 8-4-1

    8 Wins + .5 for 1 Tie = 8.5 / 13 total games = .654

    I prefer to use the following formula, especially in Excel:

    (Wins/Wins+Losses+Ties)+1-(Losses/Wins+Losses+Ties))/2

    This gives you an accurate winning percentage regardless if there are ties involved or not.

    I forgot to add a few Parenthesis; it should be:


    (Wins/(Wins+Losses+Ties)+1-(Losses/(Wins+Losses+Ties)))/2
