time conversion to float

I wrote code to convert the float value of time and convert it into hours and minutes. If input 2.5 it will return 2:30 (2 hours and 30 minutes).

$input = '2:5'; 
$num_hours=str_replace(":",".",$input,$num_hours) ;
$hours = floor($num_hours);
$mins = round(($num_hours - $hours) * 60);
echo  $hour_one = $hours.'.'.$mins;

but now I want to reverse it: if input 2:30 it should return 2.5.

You can use the modulo % operator for the first operation:

$value = 2.5;
echo floor($value) . ':' . (($value * 60) % 60);

Output:

2:30

To convert them back you can use:

$value = "2:30";

$parts = explode(':', $value);
echo $parts[0] + floor(($parts[1]/60)*100) / 100 . PHP_EOL;

2.5

AS a function we can use :

function hours_tofloat($val){
    if (empty($val)) {
        return 0;
    }
    $parts = explode(':', $val);
    return $parts[0] + floor(($parts[1]/60)*100) / 100;
}

function getPartialTime($sTime)
{
    $aTime = explode(':', $sTime); 
    if (isset($aTime[1]) {
        $iPart = round($aTime[1]*100/60);
    } else {
        $iPart = 0;
    }

    return $aTime[0].'.'.$iPart;
}

This will return on getPartialTime('2:30') => 2.5

i think this is your answer try this 

<?php
$str = str_replace(":", ".", "2:5");
$float_value = floatval($str);  // this Line Convertit une chaîne en nombre à virgule flottante

echo $float_value;  

?>

list($hours, $minutes) = explode(':', $input);

echo $hours . '.' . $minutes / 60 * 100;
