Newbie question.

In cell A1, I have numbers of hours done by employees. In cell B2, I want
to put the actual hours we will pay an employe with the following rules:

- Between 0 and 30 minutes = we pay 0.5 hours
- Between 31 and 60 minutes = we pay 1 hour
- Over 60 minutes = we pay the actual time

Having trouble with the formula...please help.

Paul
