Need help with Conditional Formatting based on dynamic threshold values

PBI SAMPLE FILE ATTACHED 

I have visual 1 and visual 2.  When I select a country in Visual 1, Visual 2 shows data for that country.

I want  a conditional formatting in Visual 2 to highlight ‘Subjects’ Or ‘Average of Marks’ where ‘Average Of Marks’ is below PassingGrade for that Country.

For example If I select Japan in Visual 1, Math and Physics in Visual 2 should get highlighted on the basis of ‘Threshold for Reference’ table

But If I select Singapore in visual 1 , Physics should get highlighted on the basis of ‘Threshold for Reference’ table

Big thanks, this works!!

Is there a way to highlight them with Red flags like below instead of background color?

If you could share the file or code snippet to do that would be great!

Hi , I tried replicating your approach as it is simplete but it is not working correcly, Check below for instance. THis should have highlighted Math as well? I think Test measure need to be tweaked a little bit. You are using Sum, and not average there, why?

Hi,

I made a measure to use for conditional formatting called "test" :
