    Can't do multiplication for total hours??

    Hi guys,

    Can anyone assist with the formula for my 3rd table in the spreadsheet attached? I want to know how many hours are worked in a week (so daily hours worked by the call centre x 7)

    Thank you!

    Hi,

    The formula should be
    =(B24-B23)*7
    and then format the cell as
    [h]:mm
    to see hours over 24.

    Hi Alkey,

    The format did not appear very clear in the post. I already have this formula, and it is not working?

    I need 4 1/2 * 7, but I need this to be in a formula i.e. (time worked to time worked = 4 1/2 hours) * 7.....

    The formula you have is not the same. You have
    =B24-B23*7
    which is not at all the same as
    =(B24-B23)*7

    Sadly this did not return a correct value. Thanks for the effort though
