Hello,
i need to change the color of certain cells based on percentage. for example if i have 20 trucks but 6 break down then i have 14 remaining. So i need a percentage of how many trucks are working. But i need to change it to a different color if it is between 100% and 75% to red, 74% to 60% to green, and so on. But i dont want it to change into percentage

You need to use conditional formatting

Let say total trucks are in A1
and working trucks are in B1 and this is the cell you want to change color
then choose conditional formating and enter this formula
=(1-(A1-B1)/A1)>=0.75
click on format and change color
