How can i convert this column to DateTIme,
I have values like 20 30 50 and when i am sum them it will be for example 140 and would like this convert to 00:02:20:00 (0 days 2 hours 20 min 0 seconds)
Input : 200
Output should be for example: 00:03:20:00
How can i achieve this on powerbi?

Generally DateTime values are expressed as decimal figures, where 1 hour is 1/24 (i.e. 0.04166666667).
Here is some sample Query code that does what I'm talking about:
let Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("i45WMjJQitWJVjKGUKZAKhYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Time = _t]), #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Time", Int64.Type}}), #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "AsTime", each [Time] / 24 / 60), #"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Added Custom",{{"AsTime", type duration}}) in #"Changed Type1"
The Source row is just "Enter Data" where i've put a value in (20, 30 and 50) to give your minutes as a whole number.
Next we create a new column which converts Whole Number minutes into the DateTime I mentioned earlier (divide 24, divide 60).
Then I convert the datatype to "duration" which will show each of those times as "0.00:20:00" and so on.
