React setState not updating state

So I have this:
let total = newDealersDeckTotal.reduce(function(a, b) {
return a + b;
},
0);

console.log(total, 'tittal'); //outputs correct total
setTimeout(() => {
this.setState({ dealersOverallTotal: total });
}, 10);

console.log(this.state.dealersOverallTotal, 'dealersOverallTotal1'); //outputs incorrect total


newDealersDeckTotal is just an array of numbers [1, 5, 9] e.g.
however this.state.dealersOverallTotal does not give the correct total but total does? I even put in a timeout delay to see if this solved the problem.
any obvious or should I post more code?

setState() is usually asynchronous, which means that at the time you console.log the state, it's not updated yet. Try putting the log in the callback of the setState() method. It is executed after the state change is complete:

this.setState({ dealersOverallTotal: total }, () => {
  console.log(this.state.dealersOverallTotal, 'dealersOverallTotal1');
});
