How do you calculate time difference?
- Convert both times to 24 hour format, adding 12 to any pm hours. 8:55am becomes 8:55 hours (start time)
- If the start minutes are greater than the end minutes…
- Subtract end time minutes from start time minutes…
- Subtract the hours…
- Put(not add) the hours and minutes together – 6:45 (6 hours and 45 minutes)
