how can I sum hours:minutes:seconds in JavaScript. I mean by 04:32:05 03:14:03 To get 07:46:08
Ive tried
var time1 = "01:00:01";
var time2 = "01:00:10";
var time3 = "01:54:00";
var time4 = "01:30:00";
var time5 = "01:00:00";
var time6 = "01:00:00";
var time7 = "01:00:00";
var hour=0;
var minute=0;
var second=0;
var splitTime1= time1.split(':');
var splitTime2= time2.split(':');
var splitTime3= time3.split(':');
var splitTime4= time4.split(':');
var splitTime5= time5.split(':');
var splitTime6= time6.split(':');
var splitTime7= time7.split(':');
hour = parseInt(splitTime1[0]) + parseInt(splitTime2[0]) + parseInt(splitTime3[0]) + parseInt(splitTime4[0]) + parseInt(splitTime5[0]) + parseInt(splitTime6[0]) + parseInt(splitTime7[0])
minute = parseInt(splitTime1[1]) + parseInt(splitTime2[1]) + parseInt(splitTime3[1]) + parseInt(splitTime4[1]) + parseInt(splitTime5[1]) + parseInt(splitTime6[1]) + parseInt(splitTime7[1])
hour = hour + minute/60;
minute = minute%60;
second = parseInt(splitTime1[2]) + parseInt(splitTime2[2]) + parseInt(splitTime3[2])
+ parseInt(splitTime4[2]) + parseInt(splitTime5[2]) + parseInt(splitTime6[2]) +
parseInt(splitTime7[2])
minute = minute + second/60;
second = second%60;
console.log(hour+ ":" + minute + ":"+ second)
The output I get is 8.4:24.183333333333334:11 instad of 08:24:11 any suggestions?

The first thing you should look into is using an Array, since you have a number of objects of the same kind.
You should ideally have something like,
const times = ["04:32:05", "03:14:03", ...]
Once you have that, this problem reduces to a classic use-case for the reduce function. The reduce function operates on an array and accumulates the value of the operation every step to yield one value at the end.
Here's an example solution for your problem
const times = ["04:32:05", "03:14:03"]
//const times = ["01:00:01", "01:00:10","01:54:00","01:30:00"]
let finalSum = times.reduce((sum, curr) => {
//Obtain the current timestamp as an array of numbers
//[HRS, MINS, SECS]
let currTimeStamp = curr.split(":").map(token => parseInt(token));
//Add the current seconds to the total seconds so far
sum[2] += currTimeStamp[2];
//See how many minutes you got leftover as a result of that addition
const leftOverMins = Math.floor(sum[2] / 60);
//Mod by 60, to keep the seconds under 60
sum[2] %= 60;
//Add the leftover minutes to the sum operation for minutes
sum[1] += (currTimeStamp[1] + leftOverMins);
//Similar procedure as above
const leftOverHours = Math.floor(sum[1] / 60);
sum[1] %= 60;
sum[0] += (currTimeStamp[0] + leftOverHours);
sum[0] %= 24;
return sum
}, [0, 0, 0])
console.log(finalSum.join(":"))

If you want to sum of times then you should try this
var addTime = function (time1, time2) {
// convert to ms
var dateObject1 = new Date(time1).valueOf();
var dateObject2 = new Date(time2).valueOf();
return dateObject1 + dateObject2;
}
var time1 = new Date().setHours(4, 32, 5, 0);
var time2 = new Date().setHours(3, 14, 3, 0);
var sum = new Date(addTime(time1, time2));
var getFormatedTime = function (time) {
return time.getHours()+':'+time.getMinutes()+':'+time.getSeconds()
}
console.log(getFormatedTime(sum))

Hello hope this answer will help you, I recommand to replace your bottom part (where you calculate) I do pretty much the same thing, but in the good order and with round to avoid decimals problems
var time1 = "01:00:01";
var time2 = "01:00:10";
var time3 = "01:54:00";
var time4 = "01:30:00";
var time5 = "01:00:00";
var time6 = "01:00:00";
var time7 = "01:00:00";
var hour=0;
var minute=0;
var second=0;
var splitTime1= time1.split(':');
var splitTime2= time2.split(':');
var splitTime3= time3.split(':');
var splitTime4= time4.split(':');
var splitTime5= time5.split(':');
var splitTime6= time6.split(':');
var splitTime7= time7.split(':');
var allTimes = [splitTime1, splitTime2, splitTime3, splitTime4, splitTime5, splitTime6, splitTime7]
allTimes.forEach(element => {
hour += parseInt(element[0])
minute += parseInt(element[1])
second += parseInt(element[2])
})
minute += Math.round(second / 60);
second = second % 60;
hour += Math.round(minute / 60);
minute = minute % 60
console.log(hour+ ":" + minute + ":"+ second)

The problem with your code is you are including the decimal point
hour = hour + minute/60;
you need to floor it.
hour = hour + Math.floor(minute/60);
Now how to do it without a lot of repetitive code.
function toSeconds(s) {
const parts = s.split(':');
return +parts[0] * 3600 + +parts[1] * 60 + +parts[2];
}
function secondsToHHMMSS(secs) {
return Math.floor(secs / 3600).toString().padStart(2, '0') + ':' +
(Math.floor(secs / 60) % 60).toString().padStart(2, '0') + ':' +
(secs % 60).toString().padStart(2, '0');
}
const timestamps = ["01:00:01", "01:00:10", "01:54:00", "01:30:00", "01:00:00", "01:00:00", "01:00:00"];
const totalSeconds = timestamps.reduce(function(total, ts) {
return total + toSeconds(ts);
}, 0);
const result = secondsToHHMMSS(totalSeconds);
console.log(result);

your making it very complex, you can reduce this by converting into Date objects and then add each date to get the sum of all dates Understanding Date and Time in JavaScript
