If you really just want a single digit answer:
=(B2-H2)*24*60+15

Will convert the normal decimal value of time into a integer representing
minutes.

Mike, thank you it works great. Now they want to convert the answer to
minutes. I tried add [m] to formatting but get a really weird answer.

Again, thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,

Try this

=(B2-A2)+TIME(0,15,0)

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Would like to convert time to minutes and add 15 minutes to the answer.
I
have set up a custom format for minutes [m] but can't get the +15. Any
help
