color code cells based on golddigger formula

[Network Guru]

Okay, I am using Excel to manage my dating life. I would like to color
code desirable dates green, iffy ones yellow, and ones to avoid, red

Here is my formula:

golddigger ratio % = (cost of date/reaction of the date) x 2

Reaction of date is from 1 to 5 with 1 being date was very dissatisfied, and
5 being extremely happy.

So assume I shell out 50 bux on a date (50 is my monthly dating budget) and
date is a 1 on the happiness scale:

(50/1)*2 = 100% There is a 100% probability my date was a golddigger

40 dollars and a 2 on the happiness scale =

(40/2) * 2= 40% chance of date being a golddigger.

5 dollars on date and 5 on happiness scale =

(5/5)*2 = 2% chance of being golddigger

NOW hereis what I'd like to do: Color cells, green, yellow, or red

0-33% Want cell colored Green
34-66% Yellow
67%-100% Red

Esentially, I want to color code things to make selection process easier. Do
I need a macro for this?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
