Q1: Why subtract lunch break from the calculation?
A: The lunch break represents non-working time that should be excluded when calculating the actual completion time of a task or project.
Q2: Can I use decimal values for lunch break duration?
A: Yes, you can use decimal values. For example, 0.5 represents 30 minutes, 0.25 represents 15 minutes, etc.
Q3: Does the calculator account for daylight saving time?
A: The calculator performs simple time arithmetic and does not account for daylight saving time changes or timezone differences.
Q4: What if the calculated time crosses midnight?
A: The calculator correctly handles time calculations that cross midnight and will display the appropriate time for the following day.
Q5: Can I use this for multiple breaks throughout the day?
A: The current version only supports a single lunch break deduction. For multiple breaks, you would need to sum all break durations and enter the total as the lunch break value.
