Default converting seconds into minutes

Hi, I am working on a spead sheet that in D colum has 76.50 this represents
76 seconds and .50 100's of a second
I am tring to come up wit a formula that will convert this to 1:06.50 in the
next colum E.
Colum D has appox. 68 cells all with various times in them like 143.89 again
this ia seconds and iooth of a second which should convert to 2:23.89
2min:23sec.and .89 one hunderths of a sec. Im stumped :)

Assume your data starts in row 2, so put this in E2:

=D2/60/60/24

and then apply a custom format to the cell of:

[m]:ss.00

Then copy the formula down as required.

Hope this helps.

Pete

Default converting seconds into minutes

One way:
=TEXT(INT(D1)*(1/(24*3600)),"p:mm")&"."&TEXT(MOD(D1,1)*100,"@")
Note! It's a string, not a number!

Regards,
Stefi
