How to add minutes to time in PHP?

To add minutes to a time in PHP, you can use the date() function along with the strtotime() function. Here’s an example code snippet:

$time = '10:30:00'; // the time you want to add minutes to
$minutes_to_add = 15; // the number of minutes to add

$new_time = date('H:i:s', strtotime("$time + $minutes_to_add minutes"));
echo $new_time;

In this example, we’re starting with a time of ’10:30:00′ and adding 15 minutes to it. The strtotime() function takes a string argument, which in this case is “$time + $minutes_to_add minutes”, indicating that we want to add the specified number of minutes to the time.

The date() function is then used to format the resulting time in the ‘H:i:s’ format, which represents hours, minutes, and seconds.

The $new_time variable will now contain the updated time, which you can use in your PHP code as needed. The output of the example code snippet will be ’10:45:00′.
