Tips: Enter the current time in HH:MM format and the duration in hours. You can use decimal values for minutes (e.g., 1.5 hours = 1 hour 30 minutes).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: The calculator handles time within a 24-hour period. For multi-day calculations, it will wrap around to the next day automatically.

A: Calculations are precise to the minute. You can input duration with decimal precision (e.g., 2.25 hours = 2 hours 15 minutes).

Q3: What time format should I use?
A: Use 24-hour format (HH:MM) for accurate results. The calculator defaults to the current time if no specific time is entered.

Q4: Can I subtract time instead of adding?
A: To subtract time, enter a negative duration value (e.g., -1.5 hours to go back 1 hour 30 minutes).

Q5: Does the calculator account for time zones?
A: No, the calculator works with the time values you provide. You'll need to adjust for time zones manually if needed.
