Hi does anyone know a formaul..or if there is a caluctor online that allows you to add up sconds and minutes and work out the total...cos a normal calculator of course works in units of 100 I need to work in units of 60..thanks
There are only 60 secs in one minute and therefore 3600 secs in one hour. So why don't you just divide and/or multiply by 60 as appropriate.
Why can't you do this on a normal calculator? I am intrigued!!!
If you have a scientific calculator you can change the base to 60 (i think that is the term) I remember having to do it in maths at school. I do agree with you though parky!!
Use a calculator with a Degrees, Minutes, and Seconds facility. (Button may show DMS or � ' '' )
Enter hours, press the DMS button
Enter minutes, press the DMS button
Enter seconds, press the DMS button
Store the resulting decimal number in memory.
Repeat the first three steps for the next time entry
Press + then press Recall Memory
Press =
Press SHIFT and the DMS button.
Display shows the sum of the two times
You may well be looking at one!
It�s safe, easy and will only take a few seconds to find out . . .
