im trying to figure out how to make a table or card that will give a count of item numbers that make up a percent. for example i want a messure that gives a count of item numbers that make up 70% of the Cumulative column. so in this case it should return the number 5.

Hi @DustinD if you refering of reuse solution from link it seems that in solution filter is filtering Product table as shown below, while you are filtering Sales table. This could be reason for unwanted results.

FILTER(Products,[Cumulative %]<=0.8))
