So what is your question, exactly?
Dates should be stored in tables and handled in PL/SQL variables as datatype DATE. That is an internal, binary format that includes both date and time components. If you want to PRESENT them in a report in a particular format, you feed the DATE variable/column through the TO_CHAR function, specifying a format mask to format it however you like.

With a more precise question, we could provide a more precise answer.

An hour is 1/24 of a day. You should be able to extrapolate from that.
