    I'm assuming you have some kind of time input that currently results in you getting a result like 1.2 days in a column I'll call "Days". With that assumption in place, try this:

    =INT(Days@row) * 24 + "hr " + ROUND((Days@row * 60 - INT(Days@row) * 60), 0) + "min"

    If you don't yet have a sheet with that setup, you can force input via a form that separates "Hours" from "Minutes."

    Without knowing how you're structuring the data, it's tough to give a definitive answer - if you need more info, would you mind sharing a screenshot of how things are structured at this point? Thanks much, and good luck!
