Presto: Difference in hours between two timestamps?

The below gives me results like 1 00:00:00.000 However, I’d like the number of hours elapsed as a float or double.

SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(ds2) - FROM_UNIXTIME(ds1)  

Does something like the below exist?

SELECT HOURS(FROM_UNIXTIME(ds2) - FROM_UNIXTIME(ds1))
