Converting hours:minutes:seconds to just minutes

[Guest]

I have a bunch of data that is in the following format: hours:minutes:seconds

For example:
3:23:14
5:20:45
8:10:20

How can i convert this into just minutes.

Thank You Very Much.

You can multiply by 24*60

=A1*24*60

And format the result as General (or Number--just not time).

Or maybe just give it a custom format of [mm]
(but fractions of minutes will be hidden by the format)

Hi!

Format as [mm]:ss to get the result as time --- 203:14

Or, to get the result as a decimal number:

A1*1440 --- 203.2333

orMore long winded

=ROUND(HOUR(A14)*60+MINUTE(A14)/24,0
