If the latter part of the number is decimal, then 59% of 60 minutes would be
the answer 1.59 minutes = 1:34 (mm:ss) http://www.ingenio.com/categories/ca...sp?sid=5228306 "agenda9533" wrote: How to convert decimal number to time : convert 1,59 (minutes, dec) to mm:ss |
Divide it by 24 if it is hours, or by 1440 if it is minutes

Problem is - I know how to calculate this mannualy. But I need a function
that converts a decimal number of minutes ( for example , 1.59 ) to a time format mm:ss (1:48) Thank you for all your answers!

One way:
A1: 1,59 A2: =A1/1440 format A2 as "[m]:ss" In article , "agenda9533" wrote: Problem is - I know how to calculate this mannualy. But I need a function that converts a decimal number of minutes ( for example , 1.59 ) to a time format mm:ss (1:48) |

He probably got a decimal number and didn't know what to do with it.
Just dividing doesn't format it as time. In article , "Bob Phillips" wrote: which is what I said |
If he knew how to calculate it manually, it would have helped if he had
asked how he could put into a cell formula, rather than how to convert it. Bob "JE McGimpsey" wrote in message ... He probably got a decimal number and didn't know what to do with it. Just dividing doesn't format it as time. In article , "Bob Phillips" wrote: which is what I said |
