Default I need an Excel formula for converting hours to days?

Whatever hours you've got formatted as [h]:mm:ss, add them up, and then (if
you want the answer in days) format the result as general or number.

I need the total number of hours to convert to days. This is for a
reimbursement log sheet for a class I am taking. The result needs to
calculate the total number of hours I will be entitled too when my class
is
done.
thx

If the cell in the A3 column is intended to be the total of the same
row's
A1 and A2 cells, then formatting A3 as [h]:mm.ss will change it from
4:15:00
PM to 40:15:00.
I can't see where your 2:50:00 AM total comes from.

You asked, in your subject line though not in the body of your message,
about converting hours to days. If you want your 40:15:00 displayed as
days, then merely format it as General or Number.
