I need a formula that will calculate the time it took from point A to point B
Example.
If i put in 07:15 in one cell...and 13:10 in another cell, I need a formula that will calculate it took 5 hours and 55 minutes to go from A to B.
any help?

Sorry, I didn't read the title and assumed Excel since that's what most people use. Numbers is completely braindead (and slower than dog poop with large tables).
Good luck!

I don't have Numbers, but I tried the following in NeoOffice Calc and got the correct answer: In cell a2 I put 07:15, in b2 I put 13:10, then in c2 I entered =(b2<a2)+b2-a2. 05:55 was computed. You might give that a try in Numbers.

It works just fine in Numbers except that it returns the decimal portion of a day 0.2465....
Multiplied out, it gives the right answer!
