adding values and converting the sum to hours and minutes

Where I am adding values-say 2.18 and 2.54, how to I get the sum to display
the total as if the values wre hour and minutes i.e. 5.12 hours rather than
4.72?
Thanks

Hi

Enter numbers as 2:18 & 2:54 in A1:A2, or use Find / Replace to substitute
"," with ":" then

=sum(A1:A2)

Regards,

A very nice solution!

In one step:

=SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",":")+SUBSTITUTE(A2,".",":") and format as time
