how can i use excel to calculate odds?
user
you can use microsoft excel to calculate odds by first entering the number of success outcomes and number of failure outcomes. then, the formula "=sumproduct(fact(a1:a2);b1:b2)/fact(sum(a1:a2))" should be entered into the cell, where a1:a2 contains the success outcomes and b1:b2 contains the failure outcomes. this formula will provide the odds of success or failure.
