I have a duration field in my index.

The duration is the time in seconds for which the booking was made.

The total shown at the end is in seconds. I want to convert it into minutes OR hours.

Is there any way I can make an operation on this final "total" field ?

Yes there is. If you navigate to Management \> Index Patterns, find/search for your field and click on the edit button on the right. In there, you can set the format to _Duration_ and pick how you'd like it to look.
