How does 'Dancing with the Stars' scoring work?
Scoring on "Dancing with the Stars" is divided into two categories: judges and audience. During the episode, the panel of judges give the dancers a score from 1 to 10. For Season 35, Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba and Bruno Tonioli will all return as judges. Before the audience votes, the judges give the dancers a maximum of 30 points.
This is where the scoring can get confusing. What matters isn't exactly the number of points a dance gets, but how that number relates to the total number of votes the judges gave out. In the scenario that the judges give out 100 points throughout a round, with dancer A getting 10 and dancer B getting 20, then dancer A will have 10% of the judge's vote and dancer B will have 20% before audience votes are tallied.
Then, let's say dancer A gets 35% of the public vote, while dancer B only gets 5%. Dancer A's final score would be 45% of the vote, and dancer B would have gotten 40%. In this example, dancer A would move on, and dancer B would be eliminated.
Scoring is the percentage of the judges' votes added to the percentage of the audience's votes, for a total score.
