  convert minutes into hours and minutes  DoctorGonzo at 10:56 on Monday, May 22, 2006
 

Hi guys,

Need help with a javascript / maths problem.

I have a field which contains a number of minutes.

I need to convert this into hours and minutes though.

If I simply divide the field by 60, this gives me a DECIMAL ie. 350 (mins) divided by 60 returns 5.83 hours... but what needs to be returned is 5 hours 50 minutes. (or 5:50, more specifically)

Can anyone help with this? I'm thinking I will pass the minutes value to some sort of function.....

take this example again
number is 350 mins
step1 ) first divide 350/60 == 5.83
then take int value means 5
it is show hours
step2)
take decmial no. : .83333
again multiply by 60

.833333 * 60 =49.99

approx value is 50
so answer is step1_value+step2_value/100
= 5 + 50/100
= 5.50
i hope u understand the logic,if doubt than ask again.

Heres a very simple way to convert Minutes into Hours and Minutes in ASP.

==ASP CODE==
TotalMinutes = 190 '190 is an example.
Hours = TotalMinutes \ 60
Minutes = TotalMinutes MOD 60
============

Enjoy.
