Default concatenate & conditional formatting in one

Is it possible to have part of a concatenated cell be conditionally
formatted? EXAMPLE: If the concatenated cell (cell A4) is 1/13 (cell A1 has
the 1, cell B1 has the / & cell C1 has the 13), can the first or second
concatenated number turn red if the number is above 7? If I condition the
cells the 1 & 13 come from it doesnt carry over to the concatenated cell. Is
there a way to do this?

Thanks for any help

You can never conditionally format parts of a cell or a formula, you can
format both parts of that string to be red if
A1 is greater than 7


If you select A4, then do formatconditional formatting, formula is and use

=$A$17

then click format and select red font
