How to apply filter here

I have this measure (that I am trying to add more filter):

 

Skill Mix % Total =
Divide(
    sum(Table[Average1])
    ,  
    sum(Table[Ave Census])
)
 
I am trying to add another filter because I need to bring only certain location (FacilityCode = 850) out of all.

I tried this way, but it comes with this error "Too many arguments were passed tot he DIVIDE function. The maximum argument count for the function is 3". 

 

Skill Mix % Total 850=
Divide(
             (sum(   
                       Table[Average1]            
                      ),
                     filter(Table, Table[FacilityCode] = 850)
            ),  
           (sum(
                      Table[Ave Census]          
                   ),
                   filter(Table, Table[FacilityCode] = 850)
          )
)
 
How do I add a filter in this case?

Did you forget to include CALCULATE?

 

Skill Mix % Total 850 =
DIVIDE (
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table[Average1] ),
        FILTER ( Table, Table[FacilityCode] = 850 )
    ),
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( Table[Ave Census] ),
        FILTER ( Table, Table[FacilityCode] = 850 )
    )
)
