Using MLE for duration data?

Hello,
I have a set of duration (in hours) data and I want to find the MLE of it under the assumption that the data is distributed exponential. I tried using the mle command but MATLAB doesn't like that the data is in hours. Is there a conversion or something I can do to obtain the mle?
Thanks!

Is the problem that your data are in a non-numeric datetime format? If so, you need to convert them to numbers. See datetime conversions (bottom half of page, "Convert Datetime Arrays to Numeric Values")

No I have the data in hours so it should be numeric.
Nevermind, I'm dumb. I needed to convert it to hours though it reads as hours. Data types are confusing. Thank you!
