Conditional formatting cells based on another cell

Hi all,

I have a cell in one tab (we will call tab 1) with a formula in it that presents the data like this: 232 +126.9%. The formula to get this data pulls data from other tabs within the sheet and separates a value and calculates the percentage increase from last year.

I need to conditional format the cell. In tab 2 I have pulled the "232" value and then next to it created tolerance intervals. I need to use the 5 arrow icon set and have been trying to get it to look at the cell in tab 2 to format tab 1.

Nothing appears to happen.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
