Good morning all,

I am trying to add the values in cell H73 (see below), but what I get is not correct.
In this cell H73, formatted as Time, I have this very simple formula:

=H14+H28+H42+H56+H70


[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: left"]
<TBODY>[TR]
[TD="align: center"][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]G[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: right"]68[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]Total Hrs. worked[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]9:00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: right"]69[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]Total min. Travel Time[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]1:00[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: right"]70[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]Daily total[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]10:00[/TD]
[/TR]
</TBODY>[/TABLE]








In cell H68 I have this formula: =Sum(A61:A67) (designated as Number),
in cell H69 I have =SUM(E62:E67)/60 (also designated as Number),
in cell H70, I have =SUM(H68:H69)/24 (designated as Time)



[TABLE="class: grid, width: 400, align: left"]
<TBODY>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD="align: center"]G[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]H[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="align: right"]73[/TD]
[TD]Grand total for the week[/TD]
[TD]16:30[/TD]
[/TR]
</TBODY>[/TABLE]





The value I get in H73 should add up to 41 hours and 30 minutes since daily totals are

H14 is 9:00
H28 is 7:30
H42 is 9:00
H56 is 5:00
H70 is 10:00

all of these are designated as Time.

Why is my "Total for the day" not adding correctly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
THANK YOU Andrew.

That worked great!!!!

Such a simple solution...

Good to know that there is always someone ready and willing to help.....
