Calculated Column Showing Business days count between 2 dates

I have a table that has 'Created' date/time and 'Updated' date/time.

I can calculate the DATEDIFF, but need to also show Business Days Only.

I have a CalendarTbl[Date] with relationship to below data.

 

Example of data

               Created                             Updated
03-05-2021 11:22:09 AM |03-05-2021 02:53:52 PM

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@Anonymous , Something like this

Work Day = COUNTROWS(FILTER(ADDCOLUMNS(CALENDAR(Table[Created],Table[updated]),"WorkDay", if(not(WEEKDAY([Date],1) in {1,7}),1,0)),[WorkDay] =1))

Thank you Amit.  Your video was helpful and I will look at your other videos.  

 

One question... how would that Sample column formula work if Sunday=1 and Saturday=7?  

I am very new to DAX and just trying to learn as I go.
