Conditionally format % based on value of another cell

[The Grim Discovery]

People,

Please lend a hand. I want B1 and then C1 to conditionally format with a green fill if they equal 90% or more of cell A1.
Looking around I thought this formula I found would (for cell B1) do it

=(B1/A1)>=0.9

But it didn't format. And I cant figure it.
As ever, thanks

	A	B	C
1	10	9	5
2

<tbody>
</tbody>

That works for me. When you put the formula in a cell do you get true?

Excel 2010
	A	B
1	10	9
2
3		TRUE
Sheet1

Range	Formula
B3	=(B1/$A$1)>=0.9

Thanks for responding Scott and confirming the formula was alright. Turns out the cell was 'text'. Schoolboy error. Cheers.
