Need Help with Odds

[Whoson1st]

If I have determined that in a game my team selected has a 68% chance of winning over the other team, how do you convert this 68% chance into a money line?
I know there must be an easy way for you old pros here to teach this old knucklehead.
Thanks

How did you arrive at this figure?
If I don't get back today am having trouble with my computer freezing up since I installed the Yahoo Toolbar.

simple math but 68% is a little better than 2of 3 of happening that is why it is slightly over -200

i just figure it out in my head

Thanks much...I see from that table. 68.3% = -2.15

Wish it had the number for ALL the percentages. But a nice Tool to have.

Take 100 - 68 = 32. Then 68/32 = 2.125

For example, a 60 % chance of winning equates to 60/40 = 1.50 money line odds.
