What is Elapsed Time?
Elapsed time is the amount of time that has passed between two points in time. It's commonly used to measure:
- How long a task or activity took
- Duration of meetings or events
- Time spent on work or projects
- Exercise or workout duration
- Travel time
Elapsed Time Formula
Elapsed Time = End Time - Start Time
For example, if you started at 9:00 AM and finished at 2:30 PM, the elapsed time is 5 hours and 30 minutes.
