Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
To extract the hour from a cell containing a time value, the HOUR function should be used. The correct syntax is =HOUR(A1), where A1 is the cell containing the time value. Therefore, the correct choice is B. Choice A is incorrect because it is missing the equal sign. Choice C is incorrect because it uses the HOUR function with a string value instead of a cell reference. Choice D is incorrect because it uses the HOUR function with a string value instead of a cell reference and is missing the equal sign.
