Answer 1

DATE TIME BASED INPUT

    var dt1 = new Date("2019-1-8 11:19:16");
    var dt2 = new Date("2019-1-8 11:24:16");


    var diff =(dt2.getTime() - dt1.getTime()) ;
    var hours = Math.floor(diff / (1000 * 60 * 60));
    diff -= hours * (1000 * 60 * 60);
    var mins = Math.floor(diff / (1000 * 60));
    diff -= mins * (1000 * 60);


    var response = {
        status : 200,
        Hour : hours,
        Mins : mins
    }

OUTPUT

{
"status": 200,
"Hour": 0,
"Mins": 5
}
