For calculations involving time or dates you can always rely on DateTime!

For your specific cuestion, you can use the constructor from_epoch to convert from Unix timestamp to DateTime.

stat($file)->mtime gives you the last modification time in seconds. Subtract that from time and divide it by 3600 ... that should do the trick.
