MINUTE function

The MINUTE function is used to extract minutes from a time value in Excel. It returns a number from 0 to 59, corresponding to the minute component of the passed time.

This is convenient when analyzing timestamps, logs, events, and any situations when you need to work with time components separately.

Syntax

=MINUTE(time)
  • time — time value or reference to a cell containing time.

Usage examples

=MINUTE(A1)

If cell A1 contains the time 14:32:45, the result will be 32.

=MINUTE(NOW())

Extracts the number of minutes from the computer’s current time.

=MINUTE(TIME(8, 15, 0))

Result — 15, since that’s how many minutes are specified in the TIME function.
