look through the stickies here. specifically, for "odds calculations."
typically, you can multiply by 2 with one card to come and multiply by 4 with two cards coming to approximate your percentage of catching what you need.
your missing cards are called "outs." and you multiply your "outs" by 2 or 4, respectively.
example: you have A4 and the board is 8 5 J. you estimate your A will win you the pot, if you catch it. there are 3 left that you dont "see." therefore, if on the flop, you multiply by 4....giving you a 12% chance of catching an A on the turn OR river. however, if the turn is a 2, you still have 3 outs. but, you only have one card to come. so, you multiply 3 by 2 and get a 6% chance of catching your A on the next card.
hope that makes sense. read the stickies for many more in depth explanations of how to use your odds.

LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.
Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

they are "posts" that will always be "stuck" at the top of a forum. and, they will say "sticky: " next to them. they are usually great articles, or links to great articles that provide well-explained concepts or answers to "frequently asked questions."
its a great idea to get familiar with them because they may answer a ton of questions, and more, for you...saving you a lot of work/time.

Good advice here. Between reading the stickies and the beginner's guide articles on the top left part of the page, a lot of questions will already be answered.
Welcome to the forum.

There are many, but more complex. Like the chance of flopping a flush, the chance of being dealt AA or 89s or any hand, or the chances of one hand winning versus another if they go to the river.
I think most of these are not useful to calculate during play, just to have a feeling for them by looking them up (reading posts, books, etc...)
One calculation that is most useful during play is pot odds vs chance of hitting your outs.
I'm sure you can find some topics here about this.
