Suppose your 15 is in A1. This will give you 3.5 in one column:

=MAX(0,MIN(11,A1)-7.5)

and this will give you 4 in another column:

=MAX(0,A1-11)

and will cope with other values as expected.

Hope this helps.

Hi there. *I'm hoping someone can help me. *I'm pulling my hair out trying to
figure out how I can take a certain number of hours (for OT banking purposes)
and calculating anything over 7.5 hours, up to 11 hours in one column - and
anything over 11 hours in a separate column.

For example: *An employee worked 15 hours in a day. *In the first column the
formula would provide the number 3.5 (as 7.5 plus 3.5 is 11 hours for the
day) and the second column would provide the number 4 (as this is the number
of hours over the 11 hours).

Any help that anyone could provide would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks so much!!
