Agreed, this is a significant math mistake.
I don't really understand the pot size if his raise is $280 more either.
Pot before flop: $62.
First bet $40, Second bet $125, All in for $405.
So we're calling $280 more and the final pot will be $62 + $405 + $405 = $872.
In this case you only need to win 32.2% of the time to show a profit.
You can check this buy calculating the profit if you won 1 in 3 times.
1 time you win $872 - $280 = $592
2 times you lose $280
Result: $592 - $560 = +$32
Edit:
When you express your odds in a ratio, you do (pot size
without my call) to (my call) i.e. "$592 to $280 odds" but when you calculate the percentage, you need to do (my call) / (pot size
after my call) i.e. $280 / $872 = 32.11%
