Converting standard time to decimal time

Hi all,

I have a column of cells in [h]:mm format that I need to convert to decimal time. (e.g., A1 displays "196:30" (196 hours and 30 minutes) and I need to convert this to "196.5" (196.5 hours).

There is probably some dumb, obvious answer that I'm overlooking, but if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks.

your time in A1, then
=A1*24 and format cell as general or number

Wow. That was embarrassingly obvious/simple. Thank you.
