Time between two times

Inputs

Start
22:00
End
06:00
Break
30

How it is calculated

Length = end − start.

Result

Length (break removed)

7 h 30 min
In decimal hours
7.5
Length with the break
8 h

How it is calculated

  1. Length = end − start.
  2. If the end is before the start, we add 24 hours (past midnight).
  3. Then we remove the break.

Example

From 22:00 to 06:00 with a 30 min break: 8 h − 30 min = 7 h 30 (7.5 hours).

Good to know

  • A range longer than 24 hours is not possible here: use the elapsed time tool.
  • A daylight saving change during the night is not taken into account.
