Can someone tell me how do i get a back price from a lay price.
eg. if i lay a bet at 3.7 what would the equivalent back price be.
I hope this makes sense

Divide your original odds into 100, in this case 100/3.7 = 27.027% The reverse odds would be the other 72.972% i.e. 100 divided by 72.972 = odds of 1.27 |

Try again MINUS one point.
100 divided by 2.7 = 37.037% Reverse odds would be 62.96% = 1.588 |

It's easier just to divide the lay odds, L, by L - 1.
Eg. 3.7 is equivalent to 3.7/2.7 (1.37) |

1/(3.7-1) = 1/2.7 = 0.3703703
add 1 back on, 1.3703703 reverse of 3.7 certainly isn't 1.27! 3.7 is nearly 11/4 so reverse would be around 4/11 - a rough ready reckoner. |

So it's either 1.27, 1.37 or 1.59.
