I added 3 fields to the class:
public int TimeInMinutes { get; set; }
public int TimeInHours { get; set; }
public int TimeInDays { get; set; }
then:
Add-Migration
Update-Database
then:
public IActionResult Index() {
DateTime date1 = System.DateTime.Now;
foreach (Product employee in repository.Products)
{
int ThetimeMinute;
int ThetimeHour;
int ThetimeDays;
System.TimeSpan Tspan = date1.Subtract(employee.Createdtime);
ThetimeMinute = (int)Tspan.TotalMinutes;
ThetimeHour = (int)Tspan.TotalHours;
ThetimeDays = (int)Tspan.TotalDays;
if ((ThetimeMinute < 60) && (ThetimeHour < 1) && (ThetimeDays < 1))
employee.TimeInMinutes = ThetimeMinute;
if ((ThetimeMinute > 60) && (ThetimeHour >= 1) && (ThetimeDays < 1))
employee.TimeInHours = ThetimeHour;
if ((ThetimeMinute > 60) && (ThetimeHour >= 1) && (ThetimeDays >= 1))
employee.TimeInDays = ThetimeDays;
repository.AddProduct(employee);
}
return View(repository.Products);
}

then in the Index.html
@if ((@p.TimeInMinutes < 60) && (@p.TimeInHours < 1) && (@p.TimeInDays < 1))
{
@p.TimeInMinutes
minutes
}
else if ((@p.TimeInHours >= 1) && (@p.TimeInDays < 1))
{
@p.TimeInHours
hours
}
else @if ((@p.TimeInDays >= 1))
{
@p.TimeInDays
days
}

in the class:
public DateTime Createdtime { get; set; }
in the controller:
employee.Createdtime = System.DateTime.Now;

created new column in the class:
public int TimeInDays { get; set; }
Add-Migration
Update-Database
then in the index controller:

public IActionResult Index() {
DateTime date1 = System.DateTime.Now;
foreach (Product employee in repository.Products)
{
System.TimeSpan Tspan = date1.Subtract(employee.Createdtime);
int ThetimeMinute = (int)Tspan.TotalMinutes;
int ThetimeHour = (int)Tspan.TotalHours;
int ThetimeDays = (int)Tspan.TotalDays;
if (ThetimeMinute < 60)
employee.TimeInDays = ThetimeMinute;
if (ThetimeHour < 24)
employee.TimeInDays = ThetimeHour;
if (ThetimeDays > 24)
employee.TimeInDays = ThetimeDays;
}
return View(repository.Products);
}

in the index view:
@if (@p.TimeInDays < 60)
{
@p.TimeInDays
minutes
}
else if (@p.TimeInDays < 24)
{
@p.TimeInDays
days
}
else @if (@p.TimeInDays > 24)
{
@p.TimeInDays
hours}

Thank you Dipa.

DateTime date1 = new DateTime(2020,3, 7,5,1,1); //07-Mar-20 5:01:01 AM
DateTime date2 = DateTime.Now; //07-Mar- 20 6:14:23 PM
System.TimeSpan Tspan = date2.Subtract(date1); // difference is 13:13:22.6494665
int ThetimeMinute = (int) Tspan.TotalMinutes;
int ThetimeHour = (int)Tspan.TotalHours;
int ThetimeDays = (int) Tspan.TotalDays;
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Today is " + date1 + "............");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Today is " + date2 + "...............................");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("difference is " + Tspan + "...............................");
if(ThetimeMinute < 60)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("minutes " + ThetimeMinute + "...............................");
if (ThetimeHour < 24)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Hour " + ThetimeHour + "...............................");
if (ThetimeDays < 0)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Days " + ThetimeDays + "...............................");
The output:
Today is 07-Mar-20 5:01:01 AM............
Today is 07-Mar-20 6:23:08 PM...............................
difference is 13:22:07.8345982...............................
Hour 13...............................
