Conditional Formatting- colour by rule not working in Power Bi

Hi, I'm wondering if someone can help me figure out why my conditional formatting isnt working in Power Bi.

I need to colour code this by Y axis - Mark- My datatype is Whole Number for this.

See below Condition: 

Im using Average because that would bring the whole number as I dont want the Sum or Count.

The count only gives me how many students got 6 or 4 which I dont want. I need students who scored 6 to be Green and so forth,

 

 

Display- it hasnt updated any colours - its only reading RED. Please help

      Hi prasadsuzie 
      I just don't understand what you need to do.
      Isn't it possible to prepare a small example without using your actual data?
      So I can explain and demonstrate how conditional formatting works

        Hi Ritaf1983 so here's what I'm trying to achieve. I have a list of assessments and Marks. I have put the Marks on Y and AssessmentName on X. I want the conditional formatting to colour code the bar graph according to the marks the students get. 

        I have set the condition and sent screenshot in my 1st query. I hope i'm making sense. Please let me know if there's anything wrong that I am not understanding about Conditional formatting?

         

        I have set the Marks datatype as whole Number so in condtion i have selected Average (because this will return the exact mark) 

        Also I am using SQL query to get data.
