1339747 2013-05-05 08:23:00 Hey, is there any way to make excel display time in hrs/mins and using that value to calculate pay?
Ie someone worked 4hrs 35min @ $10p/h = $45.83

In excel i would normally have to write it as 4.58 hours. Is there anyway to convert it so i can write it as 4.35 hrs?

Thanks!

1339748 2013-05-05 08:26:00 Format the cell as h:mm, then Excel can work it out. :) pcuser42 (130)
1339749 2013-05-05 08:32:00 Hey yep i tried that. So if i type 3.25 and format as h:mm it shows up as 6:00 and in the formula bar it shows 3/01/1900 6:00:00 a.m.
If i type 3:25 it shows up as 3:25:00 a.m.?

1339750 2013-05-05 09:28:00 Hi - just tried it by entering the time as 4:35

I then multiplied it by 24 (because excel treats the 4:35 as a percentage of a day) then by $10 and got the answer $45.83 as you had in your original post
