app customization superbadge step 2 - 'Shift Hours'

I am seeing this error...'Challange Not yet complete...here's what's wrong: The 'Shift Hours' field on the 'Volunteer Shift' record is not working as expected. I'm stuck as to what I am doing wrong. It's probably a simple fix that I'm over looking. Help solving this problem would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi @bretondev, can you explainme why we have to multiply the formula by 24?

Beacause substracting a Date/Time field by another Date/Time field gives a result in Days.
So you need to multuply by 24 to get result in hours

Thank you @bretondev for your answer. I am having problems also with the 4th challenge, could you check my question please? It is in this link (https://developer.salesforce.com/forums/ForumsMain?id=9060G0000005nCvQAI).

Hello,

I have updated the formula like this but still gettiing the same error.

FLOOR((Shift_End_Time__c - Shift_End_Time__c) * 24)

I believe if you use floor, your equation would lead to an innaccurate number. Not sure about you, but I set my field to be 1 decimal place because that's functional in a real life scenario. There is a big difference between a 2.5 hour shift and a 2 hour shift for example.
