The idea
The odds of an outcome in a group divide the number who had it by the number who did not — rather than by the total.
In practice
Three events against ninety-seven non-events, rather than three against a hundred.
Where people slip
Odds and risk use the same numerator and different denominators, which is the whole difference between them.
