Calculating Pass Completion Percentage: # of Completed Passes x 100 = X X divided by # of Pass Attempts = Completion Percentage. Example 1 Player TB12 attempted 30 passes, and completed 25 of them 25 x 100 = 2500 2500 / 30 = 83.33 Pass Completion Percentage: 83.33% Example 2 Player PM18 attempted 48 passes and completed 17 of them 17 x 100 = 1700 1700 / 48 = 35.42 Pass Completion Percentage: 35.42%
