Default formula needed for conditional formatting

Select Column B starting in B2 down then

Format|Conditional format
Formula is
=MAX(A2,B2)MIN(A2,B2)*1.1

Pick your colour and click OK

What you showed in your example wasn't quite what you described in the
words.

Try =IF(MOD(ROW(),6)<1,"",OFFSET(Sheet2!D$1,(ROW()-1)*4/6,0)) and adjust to
suit.
