i.e. pot was 400, villian bets 200 making the pot 600:
my odds are now 600:200 or 6:2

That is the correct way to go about it, but it reduces to 3:1.

To reduce the odds to the lowest form, divide the number on the right by itself, and then divide the number on the left by the number on the right.

200 / 200 = 1
600 / 200 = 3 = 3:1

By the way, there isn't that much to commit to memory from the article by Lou Krieger.

(Outs * 2) + 2 = appx. single street probability.
