Hi

I want to convert time to general (number). I want the numbers to be appeared like this 1/24, 2/24, 3/24,...., 24/24
I changed times to fractions format but I did not get what I want. In some cases like 10:00 pm, the fraction format changed it to 1 instead of 22/24.

Thank you very much

Excel Facts

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.
Leza,

I took the list of hours as shown above. In the format section converted the time to a number (second item in format dropdown). I then converted the number to fraction (from dropdown the second item) "Up to 2 digits") Result is shown below
