Hi VANAPARTHI,

You can use the getTime method to get the milliseconds between them and then convert to whatever unit you need:

Ex1. 
Double var = Math.Floor((Double.valueOf(mem.End__c.getTime()) - Double.valueOf(mem.Start__c.getTime())) / (1000.0*60.0*60.0));
Ex2. 
Long dt1Long = DateTime.now().addDays(-1).getTime();
Long dt2Long = DateTime.now().getTime();
Long milliseconds = dt2Long - dt1Long;
Long seconds = milliseconds / 1000;
Long minutes = seconds / 60;
Long hours = minutes / 60;
Long days = hours / 24;
Please let me know if this helps you.

Best Regards,
-Vivek
