Displaying Descriptive statistics in Elapsed Time

Question

My data in Minitab is in elapsed time format [h]:mm, however when I run descriptive statistics it comes back in a decimal form, that is pretty useless from the perspective of understanding elapsed time. Does anyone know how to run descriptive statistics and have it stay in a elapsed time format?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, Minitab does not have an option to directly display descriptive statistics in elapsed time format. The software automatically converts the elapsed time data into decimal format for analysis. However, you can manually convert the decimal results back into the elapsed time format if needed.
