Get Numerical Representation Of Time

[mouse88]

Is there any way I can get a numerical representation of a time.

For example 01:30:00 would be 1.30 or
15:12:12 would be 15.20

I am not interested in the seconds just the hours and minutes.

Thanks

Matt

Shouldn't your first example be 1.5? Try this:
=HOUR(A1)+MINUTE(A1)/60

 

[Weaver]

If you have the time value in A1

=A1 * 24

Then set the format of the cell to 0.00

As Excel treats time and dates as a serial number it's best to use formatting to get the time to get it to display how you want.

In this instance you could format the time as 'hh.mm'.

Hi Matt

Your examples are inconsistent.

1 - The first example seems you want simply the time in the format hors.minutes, which means the results should be

1.30
15.12

2 - The second example seems you want decimal hours, which means the results should be

1.50
15.20

Please clarify

Sorry my mistake. I wanted a decimal representation so the first example should have been 1.50.

I have used Weavers solution which does the trick.

Thanks

Hi Matt

Just a remark: Neil's ans Weaver's formulas are not equivalent.

Neil only considers hours and minutes.

Weaver takes into account also the seconds.

For ex., with Neils formula in B and Weaver's in C, the cells in B:C formatted with 0.00:
