I'm not dividing by anything (well, other than 100 to convert to decimals).


All you ever have to do to get the predicted remaining number of wins is convert those percentages to decimals and add them up. If he had us as 50% in each of our remaining 11 games, it would be .5x11 = 5.5.

If you add those up and divide by 11 you're going to get the average likelihood of victory in any one game, but you would then just have to multiply that average by 11 again to get the estimated number of wins.

If all you want is the estimated # of wins just think of those %'s as decimals and add 'em up.
