How to write a DAX query to display the subcategory along with it's value for a specific category?

Hi All,

 

I want to write a DAX query to show the subcategory along with the Score for a particular category.

For ex- I want to display the sub-category values belonging to animal category. The input is:

Categorysub-categoryScore
AnimalDog1
AnimalCat2
AnimalHorse3
MineralQuartz1
MineralSilica2
Mineralgypsum1
Mineralfeldspar2
Vegetablecarrot3
Vegetabletomato1

 

I want the output as:

 

Dog1
Cat2
Horse3

 

Thanks in advance!

@shubhrika , Not sure I got it

Try a measure like this with sub category

calculate(sum(Table[Score]) , filter(Table, Table[Category] = "Animal"))

You want a DAX query or a DAX measure? These are 2 totally different things...
