time calculation

[JaredTaylor74]

I know i have seen this before, i've even done it before, just can't remember it right now...

i am trying to take 8:43 and change it to 8.72 or 8:30 to 8.5 etc
basically changing the time to decimal. i know you divide the minutes by 60... but thats all i can remember... can someone help me job my memory?

Thanks,
Jared

Jared,

Time is part of Date, therefore in UNITS OF DAYS
[tt]
h (hrs) = t (days) * 24 (hrs per day)
[/tt]
