Hi,

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Just subtract the two cells and format the formula cell as custom [h]: mm

=A2-A1

Yes, absolutely correct David. I had this mindset of 1 day and a few hours.
Thanks for the correction.
