    Post Conditional formatting formula help

    Hi Excellers,

    I have a formula based total in I3

    In E3 I have a formula based total too.

    I need to conditional format the I3. Red if greater than or equal to 25% of E3, Amber 10% to 24% of E3, Green if 0% to 9%.

    I do not have the space to create a separate percentage column.

    Thank you in advance.

    Re: Conditional formatting formula help

    select the range you want to apply to (say from A2:A10)
    go to Home tab -> Conditional Formatting -> New Rule -> Use a formula to determine which cells to format -> Format values where this formula is true:
    =$I3>=$H3*0%
    format green

    repeat steps for amber and red:
    =$I3>=$H3*10%
    =$I3>=$H3*25%

    the sequence must be as above. otherwise, you can also ignore the sequence if you do a range.
    =AND($I3>=$H3*0%,$I3<$H3*10%)
    =AND($I3>=$H3*10%,$I3<$H3*25%)

    Thanks, if you have clicked on the * and added our rep.
