MINUTE

Description: Returns the number of minutes (0 to 59) from the specified time value. The time can be entered in a valid text format (in quotes) or as a serial number. For example, =MINUTE("8:48:00 AM") and =MINUTE(0.366666666666667) both return 48.

Syntax: MINUTE(Serial_number)

Serial_number is the time that contains the minute you want to find. Times may be entered as text strings within quotation marks (for example, "6:45 PM"), as decimal numbers (for example, 0.78125, which represents 6:45 PM), or as results of other formulas or functions (for example, TIMEVALUE("6:45 PM")).

Remarks:

Time values are a portion of a date value and represented by a decimal number (for example, 12:00 PM is represented as 0.5, since it is half of a day).

Example:

MINUTE("4:48:00 PM") = 48
