How to calculate difference in hours (decimal) between two dates in SQL Server?

Viewed 292503

I have to calculate the difference in hours (decimal type) between two dates in SQL Server 2008.

I couldn't find any useful technique to convert datetime to decimal with 'CONVERT' on MSDN.
Can anybody help me with that?

UPDATE:
To be clear, I need the fractional part as well (thus decimal type). So from 9:00 to 10:30 it should return me 1.5.
