I have a table that contains starts_at:datetime and ends_at:datetime.

In the index view, I would like to display the hours between the two datetime fields.

How would I do that?

Thanks in advance!!!

It depends on the format you expect. You can use distance_of_time_in_words for example

If you need the number of hours between the 2 dates:

((foo.ends_at - foo.stars_at) / 1.hour).to_i
