Suppose I have 2hrs, 47minutes and 10 second (02:47:10) which is in hh:mm:ss format as a value in Time column. I would like to convert it to minutes and seconds only (mm:ss). Hence the result should be 167minutes and 10 secs in sql. I have tried using the code
SELECT cast(substring('02:47:10',1,2) AS int)*60+ cast(substring('02:47:10',4,2) AS int)+ cast(substring('02:47:10',7,2) AS int)/60.0 AS minutes
The result was 167.166666.
My desired output should be 167:10 (mm:ss) format

Answer
Perhaps a lighter approach with less string manipulation
Example
Declare @T time = '02:47:10' Select concat(datediff(MINUTE,0,@T),':',datepart(second,@T))
Results
167:10
