Frequently Asked Questions

Enter the first time value, then the second time value. Choose "Add" to combine times (useful for total work hours) or "Subtract" to find remaining time. The calculator handles overflow automatically (e.g., 45 min + 30 min = 1 hour 15 min).
Use the "Difference" mode to find the absolute difference between two times. This is useful for calculating elapsed time between start and end times, regardless of which is larger.

Divide minutes by 60 to get hours. For example, 90 minutes = 90 ÷ 60 = 1.5 hours = 1 hour 30 minutes. This calculator shows both formats automatically.
Yes! When the result exceeds 24 hours, it shows days. For example, 30 hours is displayed as "1d 06:00:00" (1 day, 6 hours). This is useful for project time tracking and elapsed time calculations.
