int hours = t / 60; //since both are ints, you get an int
int minutes = t % 60;
System.out.printf("%d:%02d", hours, minutes);
It couldn't get easier
Addendum from 2021:
Please notice that this answer is about the literal meaning of the question: how to convert an amount of minute to hours + minutes. It has nothing to do with time, time zones, AM/PM...
If you need better control about this kind of stuff, i.e. you're dealing with moments in time and not just an amount of minutes and hours, see Basil Bourque's answer below.
long d1Ms=asa.getTime();
long d2Ms=asa2.getTime();
long minute = Math.abs((d1Ms-d2Ms)/60000);
int Hours = (int)minute/60;
int Minutes = (int)minute%60;
stUr.setText(Hours+":"+Minutes);
import java.util.Scanner;
public class BasicElement {
public static void main(String[] args){
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int hours;
System.out.print("Enter the hours to convert:");
hours =input.nextInt();
int d=hours/24;
int m=hours%24;
System.out.println(d+"days"+" "+m+"hours");
}
}
Given input in seconds you can transform to format hh:mm:ss like this :
int hours;
int minutes;
int seconds;
int formatHelper;
int input;
//formatHelper maximum value is 24 hours represented in seconds
formatHelper = input % (24*60*60);
//for example let's say format helper is 7500 seconds
hours = formatHelper/60*60;
minutes = formatHelper/60%60;
seconds = formatHelper%60;
//now operations above will give you result = 2hours : 5 minutes : 0 seconds;
I have used formatHelper since the input can be more then 86 400 seconds, which is 24 hours.
If you want total time of your input represented by hh:mm:ss, you can just avoid formatHelper.
The java.time classes include a pair of classes to represent spans of time. The Duration class is for hours-minutes-seconds, and Period is for years-months-days.
Duration d = Duration.ofMinutes( 260L );
Duration parts
Access each part of the Duration by calling to…Part. These methods were added in Java 9 and later.
long days = d.toDaysPart() ;
int hours = d.toHoursPart() ;
int minutes = d.toMinutesPart() ;
int seconds = d.toSecondsPart() ;
int nanos = d.toNanosPart() ;
You can then assemble your own string from those parts.
ISO 8601
The ISO 8601 standard defines textual formats for date-time values. For spans of time unattached to the timeline, the standard format is PnYnMnDTnHnMnS. The P marks the beginning, and the T separates the years-month-days from the hours-minutes-seconds. So an hour and a half is PT1H30M.
The java.time classes use ISO 8601 formats by default for parsing and generating strings. The Duration and Period classes use this particular standard format. So simply call toString.
String output = d.toString();
PT4H20M
For alternate formatting, build your own String in Java 9 and later (not in Java 8) with the Duration::to…Part methods. Or see this Answer for using regex to manipulate the ISO 8601 formatted string.
LocalTime
I strongly suggest using the standard ISO 8601 format instead of the extremely ambiguous and confusing clock format of 04:20. But if you insist, you can get this effect by hacking with the LocalTime class. This works if your duration is not over 24 hours.
LocalTime hackUseOfClockAsDuration = LocalTime.MIN.plus( d );
String output = hackUseOfClockAsDuration.toString();
The ThreeTen-Extra project extends java.time with additional classes. This project is a proving ground for possible future additions to java.time. You may find some useful classes here such as Interval, YearWeek, YearQuarter, and more.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Time{
public static void main(String[]args){
int totMins=0;
int hours=0;
int mins=0;
Scanner sc= new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter the time in mins: ");
totMins= sc.nextInt();
hours=(int)(totMins/60);
mins =(int)(totMins%60);
System.out.printf("%d:%d",hours,mins);
}
}
