Hours and minutes.Usage Tip
For payroll, decimal hours make multiplying by an hourly rate easy: 8h 30m is 8.5 hours.
THE MATH
Duration = end time − start time
If the end is earlier, add 24 hours (crosses midnight)
If the end is earlier, add 24 hours (crosses midnight)
This measures elapsed time between two clock times on a 24-hour basis.
If the end time is earlier than the start, it assumes the end is on the next day.
If the end time is earlier than the start, it assumes the end is on the next day.
Use 24-hour time: 1:30 PM is hour 13, minute 30.
Decimal hours (for example 8.5) are handy for timesheets and billing.
For spans longer than a day, use the date calculator instead.
