Thank you!
I tried TheTimeSavingC solution and it works perfectly. My select field is called "Rating", I created a formula field called "Rating Formula" and wrote in the expression box "VALUE(Rating)". The function "VALUE" is needed to convert it to a number. When I select the drop down from one field, it changes the other accordingly.
Then I added a filter to "Rating Formula" using the math operator ">" and it filters correctly. Finally, I hid the formula field from view because I don't need to see it.
