Default Need a formula for time conversion

I just tried this with the example I used below and it doesn't work

If you have actual times, you can simply multiply by 24 and format the
result as numeric, not time.

I need a formula that will convert length of time from a 60 minute base to a
decimal using tenths (2 decimal places).

For example: 59 minutes is reported as :59, but I need that to be converted
to 0.98

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
