How to calculate win percentage?

Calculating the winning percentage of a sports team or game is as simple as calculating the percentage of any other set of numbers. When it comes to winning percentage, however, sometimes a ratio or decimal is used to display the values.

A decimal is usually used in sports. For example, if a team wins 50 games out of 100, they have a 50% win rate, but typically this is displayed by .500. Ever heard the saying above or below 500? That comes from the decimal above. If you win more than 50% of your matches, then you are “above 500”.
