Data Table Creation with FILTER DISTINC and COUNT

[MackenzieGENUS]

I have a table A:

ID      AGEMO     BINDER

1        1                   0

2         1                  1

3       6                    0

4         8                  0

8       21                   0

and I created a second table (TABLE B) from the following command:

ID Target = distinct('Table A'[AGEMO])

This creates this Table B:

AGEMO

1

6

8

21

In column B I need to add an additional column that counts the ID's from table 1 that correspond to each AGEMO but only to do that if BINDER=0 to give me the following in Table B:

AGEMO    COUNT ID

1                 1

6                 1

8                 1

21               1

I was using this formula to do that:

COUNT AGEMO = countrows(filter(relatedtable('TABLE A'),'TABLE A'[BINDER]=0))

But instead of giving me the table I want above its giving me the following table:

AGEMO   COUNTID

1              4

6              4

8               4

21              4

Where 4 is just the total number of BINDER=0 animals in TABLE A instead of relating them to the actual AGEMO they should be with.

Can someone help me with this?

Hi @MackenzieGENUS ,

First of all, many thanks to @vicky_  for your very quick and effective replies, and I will give some additions below:

1.Create the simple table.

2.Use the distinct dax to create the Table B.

Table B = distinct('Table'[AGEMO])

3.Create the relationship between the Table and Table B.

4.Create the new column to count the ID from Table.

COUNT ID = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'), 'Table'[BINDER] = 0)

5.Drag the column into the table visual. The result is shown below.

If you haven't created a relationship between table A and table B, then that will happen. 
I would also suggest just creating the table with the countID column already included - 
try changing your table constructor to something like:

ID Target = ADDCOLUMNS(distinct('Table A'[AGEMO]), "COUNT ID", CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table A'), TABLE A'[BINDER]=0))
