I calculate a manufacturing process in minutes per unit. The formula gives
the total number of minutes taken - fine until the number of minutes is over
60. Is it possible to convert say 200 minutes to read 3hours and 19 minutes ?
eg 200 divided by 60 = 3.33 and then .33 x 60 to give the number of minutes ?
My thanks in anticipation.

Yes:

=A1/24/60

and format the cell as hh:mm

Try this:

For minutes in A1

B1: =A1/(24*60)
Format as Time

Does that help?
