In
sports, a winning percentage is the percentage of games or matches a team or individual has won. It is equal to WINS divided by (WINS + LOSSES). Ties may be excluded from the count altogether or counted as half a loss and half a win. Winning percentage is one way to compare the record of two teams; however, another standard method most frequently used in
baseball and professional
basketball standings is
games behind.
