Excel times are stored as a fraction of a day. To convert that to hours, you
just multiply by 24. So, if you want the result in decimal hours, change the
formula to

=(E7-D7+E6-D6)*24

and format the cell as General. Or leave the formula as-is, and in the cell
where you calculate the pay using an hourly rate, multiply by 24 in that
formula. i.e. if the formula in F7 is =E7-D7+E6-D6, and you calculate the pay
in G7, the formula for G7 is =F7*24*<hourly pay rate

My spreadsheet is set up like this: E7 is in time D7 is out time E6 is in
time and D6 is out time. The formula is E7-D7+E6-D6 to get the total hours
worked. Our time cards are printed in regular format. I need to convert
this regular time to decimal/military time to get total hours worked. I am
looking for a formula to change the hours and minutes to decimal/military
time. 1.38 = 13.63. hours +12 and minutes /60. Can I enter the hours with
decimals instead of colons and convert to decimal/military time? I am sure I
am way overthinking this and making it more difficlut than it needs to be.
Any help is sure appreciated.
