85/40 is 85 divided by 40 which is equal to 2.125
2/1 is 2 divided by 1 which is 2

That cover it for you?

If your using decimals, is 2/1 not 3?

I wasn't using decimal odds, I was just explaining how 85/40 is enhanced from 2/1 ie how it's a bigger number

I don't think we need to introduce decimal odds to further complicate things, the OP is clearly a betting office / highstreet chain net customer rather than a exchange user imo

Yes prob best not introduce decimals.

I'm not quiet sure what the op is actually asking though.
