Sorry, you cannot use that in formula, only in rules.

could he use it in a rule and write the value to a dummy item and run the formula on the dummy?

Yes but the formula would be done by the rules in that case, not formula.

As suggested you can use rules to calculate/store the three %uptime% derived values to dummy variables. Then use the three dummy values to create the dd:hh:mm message for your display. Or skip the dummy's and directly send the calculated values.

If you need additional advice then please tell us where you want to display the values. Include the details to any plugins and controllers you are using.

Another source for standard conversion formulas (and other useful things) is from ESPEasy's Tools menu: Tools->SystemVariables
