To convert minutes in decimal format to a proper Excel time, just divide by 1440. For example, if you have a number that represents minutes in cell A1, use: If A1 contains the number 360 (representing 360 minutes) then the result will be 360/1440 = .25, since 360 minutes = 6 hours = 1/4 day.To see the result formatted in a normal time format, you'll need to change the number format to a time format.or example, if you have a number that represents minutes in cell A1, use: If A1 contains the number 360 (representing 360 minutes) then the result will be 360/1440 = .25, since 360 minutes = 6 hours = 1/4 day.

By common sense it is clear that in 20 minutes the minute hand will move 20*6=120degree and the hour hand will move20*(1/2)=10degree. Clearly min hand will be at 20 and hour hand will be 10degree apart. Prasad said: (Wed, Jan 5, 2011 12:17:21 PM). Apply the formula suggested by Reddilavan.. ie: Angle = 30Hr-(11/2)Min.
