golang time.Duration calculation

[Tong Sun]

I know golang time.Duration supports basic calculations. but the problem I'm trying to answer is, 

How many 100 seconds does one hour has?

This is my code:

https://play.golang.org/p/HnwY8pDxL8

It's not fully working. Please help. Thanks

[Tong Sun]

oh, please make it 65 seconds, I need the float point calculations.

Just divide the durations: https://play.golang.org/p/ILE11eLzSx

I need the float point calculations. I.e., I need to result to be 55.38, instead of 55. 

[Tong Sun]

To make the point, let's use 68 seconds, 

https://play.golang.org/p/mfuJQa3_65

I need the result to be 52.94, instead of 52.

Type convert *prior* to the division.

Or, as an alternative, use the built in methods to get seconds in
floating point:
