I'm trying to create a formula that will calculate the number of business hours between two date/times. The start of business hours is 8:00 am and the end is 5:00 pm. Plus, I need to take holidays into consideration. In these examples, 1/2/2023 is in the "Holidays" list.

ExampleStart Time (A1)End Time (B1)# of Hours
A1/4/2023 1:30:00 PM1/6/2023 3:30:00 PM20.00
B1/2/2023 5:06:00 AM1/3/2023 9:00:00 AM1.00
C1/2/2023 9:18:00 AM1/3/2023 8:19:00 AM0.32
D1/3/2023 10:00:00 AM1/4/2023 9:00:00 AM8.00
Here is the formula I'm using:

=(NETWORKDAYS.INTL(A1, B1, "0000000", Holidays)-1) * 9 + MAX(MIN(MOD(B1,1), TIMEVALUE("17:00")) - MAX(MOD(A1,1), TIMEVALUE("08:00")), 0) * 24

This formula works for examples A and B but example C results in 0 and example D results in 9.

Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.

Try it, after you defined the holidays in a range:
