How do you calculate winning percentage with a tie game?
It depends on the sport and how ties are used. I would use point percentage rather than winning percentage to see which team has a better record. First determine how many points a win is worth and a tie. In NHL hockey, wins are worth 2 and ties are worth 1 point. So for example, a record of 5 wins, 2 losses, 3 ties results in 13 points out of a possible 20 for a .650 point percentage. A team with 5 w, 1 L, 3 t results in 13 points out of possible 18, which is .722 percentage. If you really need to get a winning percentage, try making ties worth 1/2 a win or just drop the ties from the record. So an NFL football team with a record of 8-7-1 is going to have a better winning percentage than an 8-8 team no matter which way you calculate... 8.5/16 or 8/15
Which NFL record is better 9-7 or 8-6-2?
Both are the same.The NFL considers a tie as half a win and half a loss. Since there are 2 ties, and 2 * .5 = 1, 1 would be added to the wins and to the losses. This would make the winning percentage for 8-6-2 the same as the winning percentage for 9-7.
How do you calculate winning percentage with two ties?
winning percent = (number of wins)/(total games played) x 100%

What is w percent in baseball?
Assuming that the "W" is for wins, then the winning percentage is: (wins)/(wins and losses), if ties are not included (as is the case in the MLB preseason) If ties are included, then it's: (wins+ .5*ties)/(all games played) As an example, let's say a team won 5 games, lost 2 and tied 3 others. Excluding ties, the win percentage is 5/(5+2) = 5/7 = .714 Including ties, the win percentage is (5+(.5*3))/(5+2+3) = (5+1.5)/(10) = 6.5/10 = .650
What is a better record 9 wins 5 losses or 8 wins 4 losses and 2 ties?

In the standings, a tie counts as half a win and half a loss. Through 10 games of the 2008 season, the Philadelphia Eagles record is 5-5-1. Their winning percentage is .550. This is the same as having a record of 5.5 wins and 4.5 losses (10 games divided into 5.5 wins is .550). The Cinicinnati Bengals record is 1-9-1 and their winning percentage is .136. This is the same as 1.5 wins and 9.5 losses (11 games divided into 1.5 wins is .136).

What is the Oakland Raiders overall winning percentage?
The Raiders entered the 2006 season with an overall record of 385-254-11. If you ignore the ties entirely and treat them as non-events, you get a winning percentage of .6025, and you commend the Raiders for not rounding up instead of down. The NFL, however, does not treat ties this way. It counts each as half a win and half a loss, a method that pulls the percentages into the middle, toward .500. This way, the Raiders' cumulative record from 1963-2005 would be the equivalent of 390.5-259.5, or .600769. You'll need to add in the wins/losses for the 2007 season and beyond to get more up to date numbers.
