float value to time(HH:MM) FORMAT

hr = int(input("Enter period of earth rotation : "))

ln = float(input("Enter value of longitude : "))

calc = (hr/360)*ln

print (calc)

INPUT:- 24,82.50

I expect the output to be 5:30, instead of 5.5

Try this: 

hr = int(input("Enter period of earth rotation : "))

ln = float(input("Enter value of longitude : "))

calc = (hr/360)*ln
hours = int(calc)
minutes = (calc*60) % 60

print("%d:%02d" % (hours, minutes))

Output

Enter period of earth rotation : 24
Enter value of longitude : 82.50
5:30

You've already got calc, the exact time in hours, and what you need is to convert the decimal to some number of minutes. I'd do this by storing hours and minutes separately:

hours = int(calc)
minutes = int((calc - hours) * 60)
print(f"{hours}:{minutes:02}")
