THAT IS HOW YOU CONVERT A RATIO INTO A PERCENTAGE
RATIO A:B = A/(A+B)*100
Muzz, I understand that this is for a ratio but I was working with fractions and under the impression that any pot to bet situation is a fraction and thus indicative of IN and not TO. Eg: 25% is a quarter. One quarter is written as 1/4 and by my maths 1/4 x 100 = 25%. So you see my method is correct in this instance.
And that has caused the confusion because when I saw a bet of $10 into a $90 pot, I saw it as 10/100, multiplied by 100 and came up with 10%.
