Compare table results

[Johel_D]

Hello All, I need some help with some results that I am getting on one of my dashboards.

What I need is to get the ratio between the two numbers, however, when I do the calculations the results are not correct, for instance:

Earn hours:

Paid hours: 

Ratio calculated by Power BI using DIVIDE formula:

Calculate NLE = DIVIDE(SUM('Earn hours'[ Earn Hours]), SUM('Paid hours'[Hours]), BLANK())

Nov 15: 13.15 / 10.28 = 8.16%

Nov 16: 10.68 / 10.57 = 6.63%

Nov 17: 3.32 / 8.55 = 2.06%

Nov21: 2.95 / 10.25 = 1.83%

Ratio calculated by Power BI using that I currently have:

WCG NLE =DIVIDE(SUM('Earn hours'[ Earn Hours]), AVERAGE('Paid hours'[Hours]))

Nov 15: 13.15 / 10.28 = 179.47%

Nov 16: 10.68 / 10.57 = 145.82%

Nov 17: 3.32 / 8.55 = 45.32%

Nov21: 2.95 / 10.25 = 40.29%

The result of this formula is a little bit closer but it is still off.

The results that I am expecting are: 

Nov 15: 13.15 / 10.28 = 127.9%

Nov 16: 10.68 / 10.57 = 101%

Nov 17: 3.32 / 8.55 = 38.8%

Nov21: 2.95 / 10.25 = 28.78%

The summaries in the tables "Earn hours" and "Paid hours" are correct, however, as you can see the calculations are incorrect.

Please let me know if this information is enough, the model comes from a huge database so I complicated to share a usefull model.

Thanks in advance for your help.

 Hi @ Johel_D

Based on your question, I have created the following two tables

Then you need to create a relationship for the two tables in the Model View

Then you can use your formula to get the results you want

Measure =

DIVIDE(

    SUM('Earn hours'[Earn Hours]),

    SUM('Paid hours'[Hours])

)
