I have formatted a cell in hr:mm:ss and have a number in another cell and
have inserted a formula in a third cell to multiply cells 1 and 2 together
but I am not getting the correct answer. Presumably I need to format one or
all of these cells differently.

Please help!!!
 
If your hr:mm:ss really is a number formatted as a time, then you probably
just need to multiply your result by 24 and format the result as currency.
The reason for multiplying by 24 that 1 represents a day, so an hour is 1/24,
but you need to get the number of hours.
