After Apply&Close, it shows:

Then try this calculated column:

TimeDuration = 'Table'[Custom]*24

The result shows:

Here is my test pbix file:

Hope this helps.

No, my time values are in fact durations, so your suggestion is not ok. Thanks anyway.

Try something like below

Time=hour(table[time])+(minute(table[time])/60)

If you are facing any issue related to type use format function to convert it into appropriate one
Thanks
