Steps to Create Percentage Chart in Excel
1. Select 10 Rows and 10 Columns (10 X 10 Matrix). Let's say G7:P16.
2. Shade to cells by filling them with black color and apply border to the cells (All Borders).
3. Enter a percentage value in cell D3.
4. Select G7:P16 cells and apply conditional formating using a formula.
Go to Conditional Formating >> Select "New Rule" >> Select "Use a formula to determine which cells to format"And put the following formula in the formula box.
=((ROW($P$16)-ROW())*10+COLUMN()-COLUMN($A$1)+1)<=ROUND($D$3*10^2,0)ROW(P16) => Last row of your matrix. It returns 16. COLUMN(A1) => First column of a sheet. It returns 1. It will always be the same no matter matrix is placed. D3 => Cell in which your percentage value is placed.
Final Step
After pasting the above formula, click on Format button that appears just below the formula box >> Select Fill >> Select Light Blue color >> OK
