I'd put it like that:

int sum = 0
for( String hhmm : workingTimes ){
  String[] split = hhmm.split( ":", 2 );
  int mins = Integer.valueOf(split[ 0 ]) * 60 + Integer.valueOf( split[ 1 ] );
  sum += mins;
}

String formattedWorkingTime = (int)Math.floor(sum/60) + ":" + ( sum % 60 );

You can use something like this:

public static String totalTime(String...times) {
    int total = 0;
    for (String time : times) {
        String[] splits = time.split(":");
        total+=(Integer.parseInt(splits[0])*60 + Integer.parseInt(splits[1]));
    }

    return total/60 + ":" + total%60;
}

or

Alternatively You can also use Java 8 Time API
