Default Weird Finding

I have a formula set up to calculate the difference between 2 times.

Cell A2 = 10:00 AM
Cell B2 = 10:25 AM

The formula in Cell A3 is =(B2-A2)*1440. This formula returns the total
minutes between the two times into Cell A3 which the value is 25.

I have conditional formatting set up to fill in the cell color as red if the
value is less than 25. For some reason, the cell is filling in red for the
calculation between 10:00 AM and 10:25 AM which is incorrect due to the value
being exactly 25. However, if I do a calculation of 11:00 AM to 11:25 AM,
the cell with the conditional formatting does not fill in with red which is
correct because the value is exactly 25.

I typed in some other ones too. I think 12 - 12:25 turned it red too. Its
definitely weird.

Can someone explain for me?

Thanks.
