Changing colour of half a cell's text

Folks,

I have a concatentated formula that appears in the cell as such:

12/34 e.g. =formula&"/"&formula

I would like to change the colour of the second formula (34 in the example) to Red for instance.

I have experimented with the Custom Format function with no luck, but that is likely due to my lack of familiarity with how it works

I also tried the TEXT function, inserting "[Red]0" but that not suprisingly didn't change the colour.

Is there a way to do this using Custom Format?

I'm open to a VBA solution but would prefer not

Cheers

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
