</variable></paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3149263" xml-lang="en-US">If you want to calculate time differences, for example, the time between 23:30 and 01:10 in the same night, use the following formula:</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3159153" xml-lang="en-US">=(B2&lt;A2)+B2-A2</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3152598" xml-lang="en-US">The later time is B2 and the earlier time is A2. The result of the example is 01:40 or 1 hour and 40 minutes.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3145271" xml-lang="en-US">In the formula, an entire 24-hour day has a value of 1 and one hour has a value of 1/24. The logical value in parentheses is 0 or 1, corresponding to 0 or 24 hours. The result returned by the formula is automatically issued in time format due to the sequence of the operands.</paragraph>
