Win percentage measures the ratio of wins to the total number of games played, expressed as a percentage. It provides an easy way to assess performance over a season, game, or competition.
Win percentage is a rather simple calculation. You only need the two following variables to do so:
You will get two different results from using this tool. You will first see your win percentage which is the percent at which you won based on your total games. You will also see the total games played based on your wins and losses. This is to help you get a better idea of the situation and can also be used to make sure your entries are correct, if the total games isn't what you expected you may have improperly entered your information. With this tool, if you have any ties you can either choose to omit them. If not, we recommend entering them as losses as they are not wins.
Calculating win percentage should be easy and that is what we support. Our win percentage tool is designed to be as simple and easy to use as possible. The steps involved with using this tool include:
Our hockey team's season just ended and we want to get a better idea of how we did. We can use this tool to find the win percentage that we had. We had a total of 10 wins and 4 losses. To use the tool we will enter 10 into the wins field and then 4 into the losses field. When we hit calculate we learn that our win percentage is 71.43% over our total season of 14 games.
Divide the number of games won by the total number of games played, then multiply by 100 to get the percentage.
A good win percentage depends on the context. In some cases, a 60% win rate might be excellent, while in others it might fall short of expectations.
Ties usually lower your win percentage since they do not count as wins. Add ties to your losses for a more accurate calculation using our tool.
