The maths

How to calculate win percentage

With no ties it is simply wins ÷ games played. A 12-4 season is 12 ÷ 16 = 0.750, written .750 in a standings table and read as 75%. Both forms mean the same thing; the decimal just sorts cleanly in a narrow column, which is why baseball adopted it and everyone else copied.

Ties are where it gets inconsistent. The common convention treats a tie as half a win: (wins + 0.5 × ties) ÷ total games. An 8-6-2 record is (8 + 1) ÷ 16 = .563. Some competitions instead drop ties from the calculation entirely and divide wins by wins plus losses, which for 8-6-2 gives .571 — a different number for the same record. Neither is wrong; they answer slightly different questions. The checkbox above switches between them so you can match whichever your league uses.

A record above .500 is a winning one, below it a losing one, and exactly .500 means half the games went each way — 41-41 across an 82-game NBA season. Watch out for sports that award points rather than counting wins directly: hockey standings run on a points system where an overtime loss still earns a point, so a team's points percentage and its win percentage are not the same figure.
