It depends on whether the odds are in favour or against.
Generally, the odds refer to a wins versus b losses. That is a wins out of a total number of a+b outcomes and so a probability of winning = a/(a+b).

What is the formula if you have 20 people on a basketball team 45 people on a football team 10 are on both--how many ways can a person be selected from either team?
Let P(A) = 1/10; P(A) = probability of selecting one people on a basketball team P(B) = 1/35; P(B) = probability of selecting one people on a football team P(C) = 1/10 = probability of selecting one people who plays in both teams P(D) = probability of selecting from either team. P(D) = P(A) + P(B) - P(C) P(D) = 1/10 + 1/35 - 1/10 P(D) = 1/35 or 0.0286
A team has the probability of winning one out of every six games What is the minimum number of games the team should play to have a fair chance of winning atleast one game?
A fair chance of winning is more than 50% chance of winning. Therefore probability = 0.5 We need to find a fair chance of winning atleast one match. 1-(5/6)^n > 0.5 hence, n=4 QED (quite easily done, :-p)
