0.58333333333 is how Excel stores 14:00; 14:00 is how Excel displays
0.58333333333 using a number format of "H:MM".

What kind of chart have you made? If the times are on the X axis of a line
chart, they may not work the way you expect, because a line chart does not
use values, only labels.

It appears that the actual data for the hours is charted, not the actual
hours. I can not change the scale to display the hours. I hope I have
described the situation better.
Day Max Hours Actual Hours Data
1 147 14:00 0.583333333333333
2 148 15:00 0.625
3 166 14:00 0.583333333333333
4 182 19:00 0.791666666666667
5 219 16:00 0.666666666666667
6 170 15:00 0.791666666666667
7 156 15:00 0.625

Double click the axis, and on the Scale tab, enter the values you want in
the min, max, and major unit boxes. Use a time format of h:mm or h:mm:ss
to
enter the values, and Excel will convert them to the decimal equivalents
for
you.

Thank you David. I changed to custom hh and getting 7:12 or 2:24
instead
of
7:00 and 2:00. Is there any way around it?
