Formula Used
The time card addition formula is straightforward:
Total Hours = Time Card 1 + Time Card 2 + Time Card 3 + ... + Time Card N
Where each time card represents hours worked in a specific time period. The calculator converts all inputs to hours before performing the addition.
Worked Examples
Example 1: Adding Two Time Cards
If you worked 8 hours on Monday and 6 hours on Tuesday, the total hours worked would be:
Total Hours = 8 hours + 6 hours = 14 hours
Example 2: Adding Three Time Cards with Different Units
If you worked 5 hours, 30 minutes, and 15 seconds, the total hours worked would be:
Total Hours = 5 hours + 0.5 hours (30 minutes) + 0.0042 hours (15 seconds) ≈ 5.5042 hours
