Time difference between 2 system column cells

Hi

I have 2 rows with the time they were created recorded using a "Created" system column on smartsheet. i want to know what the difference is between 2 rows in the form of hours/minutes. at the moment, it comes out with a weird decimal as shown below. can someone advise how to overcome this?

Thanks @Mark Cronk - this has been helpful, but actually discovered that i could work out the difference by doing a basic sum, then multiplying by 24 to get number of hours as a decimal, and then again multiply by 60 to get in minutes, as shown below.

=SUM((Created@row - Created4) * 24 * 60)

Having done this, i then approached a more complex issue, which i have linked you too, as i know you are v. responsive on these forums, which is hugely appreciated!
