Summing Up My Time (minutes)
 

I am having a problem figuring this out and I'm sure it is quite simple and
maybe I am trying to hard but I have a worksheet that an employee enters how
many minutes they worked on something. Each employee has a separate column
that they enter their time. What I want to do is sum up all their time
(minutes) to produce the total hours and minutes for that particular task.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, I think a simple =sum() would be in order. If you're dealing with time
sheets, look at this template:

If you're entering time in minutes (as a decimal number), you can convert it
to an Excel time with the following formula:
=a1/60/60
Format as time.

Then just sum the numbers.
If your numbers add up to more than 24 hours, use a format of [hh]:mm to
display it.

Summing Up My Time (minutes)
 

In cell A 1 I have:-

Employee1

In cell B 1 I have:-

Employee2

In cell C 1 I have:-

Employee3

In cells A 2 down to A 25 inclusive I enter:-

30

This is the number of minutes that Employee1 has worked.

In cell A 26 I have the following formula:-

=SUM(A2:A25)/60

This returns (shows in cell A 26) the number 12 - being the 12 hours worked
by Employee1.

Copy the above to other cells as required.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.
