I want to calculate time differences in PowerPivot/PowerQuery/Power BI but I can't get it to work between days.

In excel I could use 1904 dates and it somewhat works.

How should I structure date & time data to correctly calculate time differences between dates and hours with dates and hours.

Arrival timeExit timeTime
2020-03-24 21:15:592020-03-25 04:14:00##### is displayed instead of actual time difference
2020-03-23 07:00:002020-03-23 09:00:0002:00:00 hours

I have tried with date, date and time but it doesn't work.

So I would be glad if someone could show me how to calculate time differences correctly using DAX or PowerQuery?
