A £10 each-way single on a 10-1 selection in a horse race and paying 1 ⁄ 4 the odds a place 1, 2, or 3 would cost £20.. Returns on the win part of the bet would be £10 × (10/1 × 1) + stake = £110 (£100 winnings + £10 stake)
E.g. £100 each-way fivefold accumulator with winners at Evens ( 1 ⁄ 4 odds a place), 11-8 ( 1 ⁄ 5 odds), 5-4 ( 1 ⁄ 4 odds), 1-2 (all up to win) and 3-1 ( 1 ⁄ 5 odds); total staked = £200 Note: 'All up to win' means there are insufficient participants in the event for place odds to be given (e.g. 4 or fewer runners in a horse race).
The total number of bets in an alphabet is therefore 26 [2 patents at 7 bets each, plus 1 yankee at 11 bets, and one accumulator at one bet - (7+7+11+1=26)]. At least one correct selection guarantees a return.
In events with five to seven runners, no dividends are payable on third place (signified by "NTD" or No Third Dividend) and in events with 4 or fewer runners, only Win betting is allowed. Each-way: A combination of Win and Place. A $5 bet Each-way is a $5.00 bet to Win and a $5.00 bet to Place, for a total bet cost of $10.
Parlay bets are paid out at odds higher than the typical single game bet, but still below the "true" odds. For instance, a common two-team NFL parlay based entirely on the spread generally has a payout of 2.64:1. In reality, however, if one assumes that each single game bet is 50/50, the true payout should instead be 3:1.

The rough equivalent of the each-way in North America is the across the board (win/place/show) or win/place bet, where equal bets on a horse are made to win, place, and show (or just win and place). Each portion is treated by the totalizator as a separate bet, so an across-the-board bet is merely a convenience for bettors and parimutuel clerks ...
A Dutch or an arb is profitable if the sum of the reciprocals of the decimal odds of each selection is less than 1, and each bet is sized such that the payout in each outcome are the same. Additionally, the profitability of a Dutch/arb can be expressed as 1-R, where R is the sum of the reciprocals. [2]
