Using Slicer date value in dax expression

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone,
I am having a trouble to solve a situation. i have a slicer with month names from a table named as 'A sheet'. Moreover I also have date coloumn within same table from where i extracted those month names.
Now what i wanted to do is to select multiple months from slicer and use the month number of selected months in a measure for making farmula in dax.

I am new to power bi and i would greatly appriciate your help.

You can use get the months selected and incorporate in a formula, this returns a single-column table for you to work with 

VALUES('Calendar'[MonthNo])

Thank you for your help. 
Your expression is allowing me to select one value from slicer and let me use it in farmula sucessfully however i want to select multiple values from slicer and use month number in farmulas and show it in table but in trying to do so it gives me the error.
I am using the farmula:

Dissemination | Desired = sum('Combined query'[outstanding])/12+SUM('Combined query'[outstanding])/12*(VALUES('A Sheet'[Date].[MonthNo])-1)-sum('Combined query'[Dissemination])

Can you explain what your formula is supposed to calculate?
I see you have deducted 1 from the month number, you need to iterate each month number and calculate.

Share sample data and the expected results.
