How do I show the total of difference between two times in decimals (numbers)
to calculate charges.

Example: time elapsed between 10.15 am to 12.15 pm = 2 hours.

Suppose a charge of $ 3/hr to be charged the total to be charged would 2*3 =
$6.

Excel does not give that answer if one enters that formula.

Will someone please help me with this question?

Thanks.

Hi


A1= 10:15
B1= 12:15
C1 = 3

formula in another cell
=((B1-A1)*24)*C1
Format as general

Times in Excel are stored as fractions of a day.
So 1 hour is 1/24th of a day.
Multiply your time difference by 24 and you get an integer/decimal # of hours
