calculate costs: duration X cost / hour = huh?
I use a the basic Numbers invoice for billing customers.
I have been entering my hours worked as a decimal value -- such as 1.5 meaning 1h 30m
I was trying to instead use hours and minutes, because some increments look better e.g 1h 50m vs 1.833333
However, the formula / cell setting ends up with a charge per day rather than per hour.
1hr 50m x $30 returns a value of $2.29
If I enter 1.833333 to display as duration, it shows 1d 19h 59m.
While I can use a workaround formula that multiples the result times 24, or continue to just calculate my hours as decimals, I'd like to know if there is a "correct" way to do this.
Thanks
