Small maths/probability question

Hello guys I am not very good at maths and was thinking about a gambling related question recently and couldn't figure it out, I would appreciate it if someone could help me, I know there are many geniuses here on stake. 

I want to figure out what is the formula for betting on various different and mutually exclusive odds in a bet, so my profit/loss is always the same. If all the odds and payouts are the same, like 37 numbers in roulette, it's easy, just put 1 chip on every number, no matter what number comes up, the amount I win or lose is same (in this case a small loss). But if different bets have different odds like for example betting on every horse in a race, I don't know how to make my profit/loss the same. 

If you like math, it's interesting to think about. Hope someone smart can teach me.

lets say you bet 100$ and the odd is 2x, you lose it and want to use martingale on the next bet. You decide to bet on a match with 1,5 odds, now if you want to take back the 100$ from the last match and make a profit of 100$ you must bet 600$

x (your future bet)  *  1,5(odds) =  x (future bet)  -(100+100)  (money you lost)  (money you want to make)
