The "trick" knowing that Excel stores time as a fraction of a day
So if the first set of data is in row 2 then =B2/C2 will give the wrong
answer while =B2/(C2*24) will give the correct answer. However, Excel might
be over helpful and format this a time, so use the Format Painter to copy
B2's format to D2; or just format the cell with the Format dialog.
Now you can copy the formula down the column
best wishes

If by 13:15 you mean 13 hours, 15 minutes, then:

=B1/(24*C1) should display 528.30
