Time Calculator
Add or subtract hours, minutes, and seconds, or find the duration between two specific times.
Converting Time Units
Time calculations can be tricky because time is not decimal based (it uses base 60). This means you cannot simply add .30 to 1.30 to get 2 hours.
How to Add Time Manually
- Add the seconds together. If > 60, subtract 60 and carry 1 minute.
- Add the minutes together. If > 60, subtract 60 and carry 1 hour.
- Add the hours together.
Example: 1:30:45 + 0:45:20
- Seconds: 45 + 20 = 65 (1 min, 5 sec)
- Minutes: 30 + 45 + 1 (carry) = 76 (1 hr, 16 min)
- Hours: 1 + 0 + 1 (carry) = 2
- Result: 2:16:05
