Need some help with some coding...

Question

I have to creat a progran that ask the user to enter the amount of hours work for 5 diferent projects in textboxes. The user have to enter the time he worked in minutes. Ex: 153, 280, 600, 130, 20... The total then is out putted into a textbox in this format "13 Hours and 35 Minutes" I'm having dificulties making the conversion and the separation from hours and minutes. I understand that the total is divided by 60, but if we fallow the above numbers the total hours comes out to 1183 / 60 = 19.71. So I'm having problems with the .71 mnts or digits... so from this total I have to output the total of in this particular format: "19 Hours and ? Minutes" so can anyone give me hint please, please!!! 

Answer 1

is this a class project?

to start, in VS2008 click on the Help menu. Then click on Search

in the Search box on that page, type in Mod Operator Visual Basic

on that page, it will show you how to get the hrs part, and it will also tell you how to get the remaining minutes



try to solve it using what you find on that page (the answer is there) :)

Answer 2

 
        Dim TS As TimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(150)
        MessageBox.Show(TS.Hours & " Hours " & TS.Minutes & " Minutes")
