Piece per hour

[Debbie Dies]

I want to find out hour many birds I processed in an hour.

I want to enter a start time in cell a1 and a stop time in cell b1.
want cell c1 to automatically calculate how many hours I worked. I
cell d1 I want to enter the number of pieces I produced and then I wan
cell e1 to calculate how many birds I processed per hour.

Example: I start at 8:00 am stop at 4:00 pm. That equals 8 hours.
produced 400 birds in those 8 hours. I can get cell c1 to tell me ho
many hours I worked but I can't seem to get cell e1 to give me how man
birds I produced per hour.

cell a1 = 8:00 am
cell b1 = 4:00 pm
cell c1 = b1-a1
cell d1 = 400
cell e1 = ?????

Can you help

XL stores times as fractional days, so to convert a time into hours,
multiply by 24:

E1: =D1/(C1*24)

Thank You JE. It worked! I really appreciate your quick response.

We should use time as 24 hours insted of AM/ PM. In your case you shuld use 8.00 (in place of 8 AM) and 16.00 (in place of 4.00 PM. I think problem will solve
