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

How do you find the whole from a percent?

Divide the amount given as a percent of a whole by the percent, converted to a decimal by multiplying the percent by 0.01 (exact). The value of the whole will be the quotient. In symbols, when w is the unknown whole, k is a known percent of the whole, and the percent p itself is known, w = k/(0.01)p or 100 (k/p).

How much of an alloy that is 40 percent copper should be mixed with 400 ounces of an alloy that is 80 percent copper in order to get an alloy that is 60 percent alloy?

Designate the weight in ounces of the first alloy, containing 40 percent copper, as w. Then, from the problem statement and the fact that percentages can be converted to decimals by dividing by 100, 0.40w + (0.80)(400) = 0.60(400 + w). Applying the usual methods of algebra, multiplying out results in: 0.40 w + 320 = 240 + 0.60w; transposing like terms with sign change and collecting results in: (0.40 - 0.60)w = 240 -320; or -0.20 w = -80, or w = 400.


20 grams is 60 percent of what weight?

20 g = 60% x W thus W = 20g / 60% = 33.3g
