To find stage duration, calculate the mitotic index, multiply by total cycle time for mitosis duration, then subtract mitosis time from total time for interphase duration.
The time for each cell cycle stage is calculated by finding the mitotic index, multiplying it by the total cell cycle duration to get mitosis time, and subtracting this from the total duration to find interphase time.
