> The K/D calculator works out a gamer’s kill-to-death ratio, KDA including assists, and how many kills in a row are needed to reach a target ratio.

## Inputs

- Kills
- Deaths
- Assists
- Target K/D

## Results

- K/D ratio
- KDA
- Kills needed without dying

## Formula

```
K/D = kills ÷ deaths
KDA = (kills + assists) ÷ deaths
```

## Explanation

K/D is a quick measure of combat performance in shooters; KDA rewards teamwork in MOBAs.

### How to use the K/D Ratio Calculator

- **Kills**
- **Deaths**
- **Assists**
- **Target K/D**

Results update as you type, and every field accepts the units shown in its menu.

### How it works

Divide kills by deaths; for the target, solve kills needed with no further deaths.

### Inputs explained

FieldWhat to enterKillsA numberDeathsA numberAssistsA numberTarget K/DA number

### What each result means

- **K/D ratio** = [Kills]÷[Deaths]
- **KDA** = ([Kills] + [Assists])÷[Deaths]
- **Kills needed without dying** = max(ceil([Target K÷D]×[Deaths] - [Kills]), 0)

### Example values

How the main result changes when **Kills** changes and everything else stays at the example values above:

KillsK/D ratio6250.64937.50.961,2501.281,562.51.591,8751.912,5002.55

## Worked example

Inputs — Kills: 1,250; Deaths: 980; Assists: 420; Target K/D: 1.5.

Results — **K/D ratio = 1.28**; KDA = 1.7; Kills needed without dying = 220.

## FAQ

**Is a K/D above 1 good?**
It means you get more kills than deaths, which is above average in most games.

**Why does my ratio barely move?**
With many games played, each match has a small effect.

**What formula does the K/D Ratio Calculator use?**
K/D = kills ÷ deaths.
