Subtract two times in apple numbers "ERROR"

i have a pop-up menu with time from 15:45 till 20:00 and i have another one with the same time i wanna use it to calculate the extra time i work but if i start the pop-up menu with Blank i always get an error when i try to subtract for example 17:45 - 15:45

if both cells are blank there is no error but the moment i put a time in one cell i get the error.



some help please, Thank you.

Surround the formula in IFERROR


=IFERROR(Monday End Extra Time−Monday Start Extra Time,"")


Note: you don't need to use SUM when you simply perform an addition or a subtraction between two values.
