How to use the Time Duration Calculator

  1. Enter each duration in hours, minutes and seconds, choosing + or −.
  2. Add rows as needed.
  3. Press Calculate.

Formula

Total seconds = Σ ±(h × 3600 + m × 60 + s). Then h = ⌊total ÷ 3600⌋, m = ⌊remainder ÷ 60⌋, s = what is left.

Examples

  • 1:45:30 + 0:52:15 − 0:20:00 = 2:17:45.
