What this converter does

Instantly switch between fractional, decimal and American (moneyline) odds, and see the implied probability for any price. Type into any field — the other three update automatically.

How the maths works

  • Decimal → implied probability: 1 ÷ decimal odds × 100. Example: 2.50 → 40%.
  • Fractional → decimal: (numerator ÷ denominator) + 1. Example: 6/4 → 2.50.
  • American positive → decimal: (odds ÷ 100) + 1. Example: +150 → 2.50.
  • American negative → decimal: (100 ÷ |odds|) + 1. Example: -200 → 1.50.

Why you'd use it

Most UK bookmakers default to fractional, sharp markets to decimal, and US books to American. Converting at a glance lets you line-shop across formats without losing your edge. Read our odds guide for a deeper walkthrough of implied probability and bookmaker margins.

Frequently asked questions

What is implied probability?

Implied probability is the bookmaker's stated chance of an outcome, calculated as 1 / decimal odds × 100. For example, decimal odds of 2.00 carry an implied probability of 50%. Use the converter to spot prices where your own estimated probability is higher — that is the definition of a value bet.

How do I convert fractional odds to decimal?

Divide the numerator by the denominator and add 1. For example, 5/2 becomes 2.50 + 1 = 3.50. The converter does this instantly for fractional, decimal and American formats.

Why do American odds use + and − signs?

Positive American odds (e.g. +200) show the profit on a 100-unit stake. Negative odds (e.g. −150) show the stake required to win 100 units. The converter normalises both into decimal so you can compare prices across markets quickly.
