Journey time calculator
 
I need to calculate journey time and display in hours and minutes.

A1 = 50 (for mph), A2 = 75 (for miles), A3 to display 1:30 (time in hours &
minutes) not 1.5 as it does in straight calculation.

Help please...

Many Thanks

I think this is far too complicated but it works. Note it is a helper cell
looking at the answer of 1.5 in A3. A3 must be formatted as a number to 2
decimal places

=INT(A3)&"HR "&INT(60*(A3-INT(A3)))&"Minutes"
