Hi All,

 

I would like to convert Minutes into this format.

 

MinutesConversion
0:010.017
2:272.450

 

Formula in excel is 1minute/60minutes= 0.017

 

Thank you!

Hi @Belletmns ,

 

There is no direct formula to calculate this conversion automatically. Here is my suggestion.

Hi 

 

You can just use a formula tool and get the desired results. Please refer to the screenshot below.

Hi bhrmitra,

 

How about if data becomes 2:00 for example? the result becomes 0. What additional formula should I add?

 

Thanks

Hi 

 

If you see my previously attached solution, 2:00 is giving 2 which should be the expected output. Check if you have data 2.00 instead of 2:00 which will actually give you zero as there is no date conversion happening.

 

Below screenshot shows you different scenarios:-
