Average calculation
- Anonymous4 years ago
Hi pva
How did you get 4.5 when you use (2+5+3+4)/4 ? The correct answer is 3.5 .
For 5125 , the final result is 3.5 -> ((4+6)/2+2+3+4)/4 .For 2147 , the final result is 4.667 -> ((2+4)/2+8+3)/3 . So the final average is 4.08 ->(3.5+4.667)/2
To realize the final average , you need to nest an AVERAGEX() outside the formula provided by SU .
Avg =AVERAGEX(VALUES('Table'[Code]),calculate(AVERAGEX(VALUES('Table'[Period]),CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[Hours])))))The final result is as shown :
I have attached my pbix file , you can refer to it .

pva try this measure
Avg =

Thank for your help. In the table there are more codes. The table would be like this:
| Code | Period | Hours |
| 5125 | 201902 | 2 |
| 5125 | 201903 | 4 |
| 5125 | 201903 | 6 |
| 5125 | 201904 | 3 |
| 5125 | 201905 | 4 |
| 2147 | 201902 | 2 |
| 2147 | 201902 | 4 |
| 2147 | 201903 | 8 |
| 2147 | 201904 | 3 |
So the global average should be:
5125 -> 4,25
2147 -> 3,66 (2+((4+8)/2)+3)/3
Total avg = (4,25+3,66)/2 = 3,955
