    I need a timesheet formula...please!

    If A1 and B1 start and end times are 1:47 PM & 5:25 PM...and I want the answer in C1.

    What is the formula that I would paste/enter in C1 that would give me 3:36?

    Yes, that's 3 hours and 36 minutes. We do time cards based on 6 minute increments.

    Thanks so much!!!

    Welcome to the forum.

    =B1-A1

    Next time, please come up with a better title - one that tells us what you are trying to do 9see the forum rules).

    Re: I need a timesheet formula...please!

    would this work for nearest 6 mins
    =ROUNDDOWN((B1-A1)*240,0)/240

    240 is the number of 6mins in a day
    and i'm rounding down

    so 13:47 will be 3:36 up until stop time reaches 17:29 , then its 3:42

    Assuming the times are real numbers and not text strings:

    1) As AliGW says, a simple subtraction will calculate the difference between two time numbers.
    2) An MROUND() function can then be used to round to the nearest 6 minutes. =MROUND(B1-A1,TIME(0,6,0))

    If the times are text strings, then the first step is to convert them to real numbers or modify the data entry step to make sure that the times are entered as numbers.
