How this is calculated

Pick a tie rule first. Half-ties is the usual sports convention. Exclude-ties is wins over decisions only.

half ties: (wins + 0.5 × ties) / (wins + losses + ties) × 100

  1. 8 wins and 2 losses: 8 / 10 × 100 = 80%.
  2. 10-6-4 with half ties: (10 + 2) / 20 × 100 = 60%.
  3. 10-6-4 ignoring ties: 10 / 16 × 100 = 62.5%.

Leave ties at 0 if the sport does not draw. Negative counts are rejected.

Not the same as

Win rate is not a generic part-over-whole unless you already collapsed the record into two numbers.

You can enter 0. The calculator treats a blank tie field as 0.

It becomes that after you choose a tie rule and form a games total. This page does that step for you.
