How do I convert Time in Decimal Format to HH:MM:SS

I am trying to convert the Times in the screenshot below to HH:MM:SS. They are coming from the Ring Central server. When I try to format in Power BI, they do not match the reporting in Ring Central.

I don't know the formula to change this. I am really new to Power BI.

Any assistance would be helpful.

Thanks

I believe you want the technique in Chelsie Eiden's Duration, a custom display format

string. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/Chelsie-Eiden-s-Duration/m-p/793639#M389
This is kind of an update to a older blog post, Aggregating Duration in Power BI: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Aggregating-Duration-Time/ba-p/22486


Custom Format String:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-custom-format-strings

Also, this might help as well:

Sorry, have done a lot with duration over the years!!

 

If you can post sample data as text I can be more specific! Please see this post regarding How to Get Your Question Answered Quickly: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/How-to-Get-Your-Question-Answered-Quickly/ba-p/38490

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.
