Subtracting time

I am having difficulty creating a formula. 

I need to subtract time         

09:30     09:57    where these would be in two different columns and I need to know the time difference.

 

and also knowing that there may be some in my spreadsheet which go over to hours.

    If you have your 9:30 in Cell A1
    Your 9:57 in cell B1
    Then entering the formula below in Cell C1 will give you the result :27
    =B1-A1

    If the first value is 7:30 instead, then the result is 2:27

    If that's not what you're looking for please come back with a more complete description of what kind of result you're expecting.
