Conditional Formatting of interdependent values in one cell Excel

Question

I am working on a spreadsheet for planning road improvements, there are two aspects. Resurfacing and Surface Dressing these are interdependent values as you can see in the example below. However there is no scenario where both numbers can exceed 100 and I was hoping of finding a way of displaying total percentages of resurfacing and surface dressing in one cell. Ideally with resurfacing on the left of the cell and surface dressing on the right.

Currently I am using conditional formatting on each cell, I know I can store two values in one cell but it doesn't seem possible to use conditional formatting on these cells.

Any Ideas how this can be achieved? Would be much appreciated

Answer 1

I'm not sure which values are which, but combining two results into one cell can be done like this:

="A438 "&A4&" "&A5

and you could replace the A438 with a cell reference :

=A2&" "&A4&" "&A5
