Hi @KH11NDR , @Bt123 , @aslee , @rlien1 , @v-shex-msft 
See my top picture, save your rule as decimals, and use number.  I forget why this works this way, but there is a reason.  Something to do with percentage meaning a percentage of all your values.
Let me know if you have any questions.

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos 

 

are nice too.

Hi @Bt123,

Current power bi conditional format feature not support text, you can calculate the result as decimal, then switch the display mode(percent) at modding panel.

Power BI handles percentages as text?  I'm confused.

 

If I want to apply a conditional format to all values above 85%, I try entering 0.85 or 85 or 85% in the conditional formatting input fields.  Power BI unfortunately applies the formatting to all values in the table, including those less than 85%.

 

My percentage is a result of a quick calc (% of column total).

Can you elaborate little more what you mean by conditional formatting?
