Hi, @Zakaria_1980 

 

You need to change 'percent' to 'number'. 'Percent' represents the proportion of values, it doesn't represent values.

@Zakaria_1980  Do the below setting for Background as well as for Font Color but for Font color use RED color instead of color as per below screen shot.

Or make range in conditional formating but don't forget to put 0.9 in place of 90
