Decimal Subtractraction
 

Hello from Steved

7.58 from 8.15 is 17 minutes
12.55 from 1.15 is 20 minutes

Could I please have a formula for the above please.

Thankyou.

Will 1.15 *always* be 1:15 PM? Will 8:15 always be 17 minutes after
7.58, or might it sometimes by 737 minutes?

presuming you enter 1:15 as 1:15 pm, simply subtract the first from the
second and format as time. If you want the result as an integer 17,
then multiply the above result with 1440 which is nothing but 24*60

Assume that the first time (i.e. 7:58 and 12:55) is is A1,A2 and the end
times are in B1, B2.

Firstly format the columns to be TIME and in a 24 hour clock format.

Then in C1 enter =b1-a1. Then either copy the formula down as far as you
want or use the FILL handle to copy down.
