Damage Per Second

[Aadarsh]

I want to calculate the damage per second of a character. It's damage is 90 and the hit speed (fire rate) is 0.8 second.

"Damage per second" means "damage divided by time in seconds" so 90 damage in 0.80 seconds. 90/.8= 112.5 damage per second. Another way of looking at it is that 0.80 seconds is 4/5 of a second. 90 damage in 4/5 of a second is the same as 90/4= 22.5 in each fifth of a second. The full second would have 22.5*5= 112.5 damage.
