Minutes and seconds in duration rows may exceed 59; they are normalized automatically. Subtraction takes every later row away from the first and can return a negative time. Decimal and total-minute conversions round to the nearest whole second.

04 / FORMULA

Time math explained

1 hour = 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds

Each duration is converted to whole seconds before addition or subtraction. Decimal hours = seconds ÷ 3,600; total minutes = seconds ÷ 60. A negative result means the subtracted durations exceed the first one.

All time calculations stay in your browser.
