Fractional odds Fractional odds

This way of presenting odds is common with UK Bookmakers. The main difference between fractional and decimal odds is that while decimal show you how much money will be returned from a 1 unit stake the fractional odds tell you how much profit there is from a 1 unit stake.
Example: Arsenal to win vs. Manchester Utd @4/5
stake: 100 units
profit: 4/5 x 100 units = 80 units
return: (4/5 + 1) x 100 = 180 units
Conversion from fractional odds to decimal odds is easy: simply add + 1 to the fraction. With the example above odd @4/5 is equal to (4/5 + 1) = 0,8 + 1 =@1,80
