Take the 100 and add a 0 to enable you to divide 160 into it....
thus: 1000 divided by 160 = 6.25....
Now take the amt wagered $55 times that and you get 34.375...
Rounds off to 34.38.....
Thanks both of you guys for helping out....kapt
PS---not a stupid question at all.....I'm sure many others will benefit from this formula....One only learns by asking, comprehending, and retaining....kaptLast edited by Kaptain; 04-06-2007, 02:30 PM.
