Default Up date of what I think I learned regarding pot odds and breaking even

I looked in Phil Gordon's book and I came up with this:
Pot odds = pot/what I'm asked to call. Example pot 7 a bet of 2 so i would get 9/2 or 4.5 to 1 on my money. To break even I am told = 1/pot odds+1 or in this case 1/4.5+1 or 1/5.5 18% I need one win for every 5.5 loses. 1 win 11 5.5 loses 11. I was trying to say this in my posts before on pot odds and stuff (or I meant to say it) just got some things mixed up. I hope this one is correct
