    Duration of phone call and total cost.....how to work ut cost per minute ?l

    Hi,

    I know this should be simple, but I cannot figure it out so it's open to you please !

    I have a 2 values.

    Column A1 = £17.90 (total cost)
    Column A2 = 00:02:00 (duration)

    What I want to achieve is a cost per minute in Column A3 (which, in the example above would be £17.90 / 2 mins = £8.95)

    Help please ?
