Formating cells under Header 2, Header 3, Header 4, etc, based on cells under Header 1, in the same

Copper Contributor

Hi!
I try to format cells based on a minimum list:

minimumcount 1count 2count 3count 4
10550350
202520525
5060556545
3015452535
5020406050

 

If the number in one of the cells are lower then minimun, it should be formated to example red.

This is a big document, and it will take forever to do 1by1. If there a way to do this faster?

 

Thx
