how do I create formula to sum hours & min's

[Guest]

I need help, my feeble mind cannot come up with a formula to match my 60 min
time clock. I need to have a "form" that other employees can just plug the
#'s in and not have to mess with the formula or the numbers (ie: going from a
60 min clock to an 100 min clock)

Get them to input the time as hh:mm, and then just add them together. Format
the result cell as [h]:mm.

What does the plugged #s look like ? Is it real time, as in
08:45
? Or is it 8.45 or 8.75 or 845 or all of the above ?
You may want some theory on this first

With 8.45 in A1, formula in B1 converts to real time:
=TIME(INT(A1),MOD(A1,1)*100,0)
