You don't know how to divide a number of games by 2? That's all you do to find the record of a .500 team. Not that hard. Your not trying hard enough

This is a semantics problem. 20-10 team is 5 games ahead of any team that is sitting at 0.500 regardless if they are 1-1, 15-15, or 30-30.

But when you say over .500, .500 is not a team that will accumulate wins and losses. It is just a milestone that you are holding that singular team against. They are therefore 10 games ahead because they have accumulated a 10 game lead against that milestone.

Alabama leads the series in football against Arkansas 24-8. How many games in a row does Arkansas need to win to even the series at 24-24? The math equation is actually in the very first sentence. That is the answer to “how many games over .500 is Alabama against Arkansas?”.
