Default Converting a decimal number into time

Biff, David's answer to your question is correct. 111.8 is 1 minute, 11
seconds and 80/100's. Your formula gives an answer of :111.8 I really need
:71.80. Or 1:11.8 then when I convert to [ss].00 I'll get :71.8.

Thanks for your help!

22.4
46.6
111.8
123.8
Need to convert to [ss].00:
:22.40
:46.60
:71.80
:83.80


How does 111.8 relate to :71.80 and 123.8 to :83.80 ?

Hi!

Try this:

=TIME(0,0,A1)+MOD(A1,1)/86000

Format as \:[ss].00

Not sure what the backslash is for. Excel adds it automatically.
