Incorrect Total

Hi,  This DAX is producing the correct values for 4 Months individually but the incorrect value for the total.

Ans =
VAR ActDays = MAXX ('Plan', [Day_Cnt]) - MAXX ('Plan', [Rem_Cnt])
VAR RemDays = MAXX ('Plan', [Rem_Cnt])
VAR Result = CALCULATE (
    SUMX ('Details', DIVIDE ([MyValue], ActDays) * RemDays),
   MyDim[DimValue] <> "Do not want this"
    )
I am seeing this:

Feb 20242101,924,5970
Mar 20242101,867,8650
Apr 20249132,067,3811,221,633
Total1013

8,410,212

6,467,862

I need Total Act to be 1,221,633

I created the multiplication at a column level and a measure to add it up.  That solved it.  However, I do like these ideas and I will try them.
Thank you for the answers.

Hi @FPP 
Please try

Ans =
SUMX (
    VALUES ( 'Table'[YearMonth] ),
    CALCULATE (
        VAR RemDays =
            MAXX ( 'Plan', [Rem_Cnt] )
        VAR ActDays =
            MAXX ( 'Plan', [Day_Cnt] ) - RemDays
        VAR Result =
            CALCULATE (
                SUMX ( 'Details', DIVIDE ( [MyValue], ActDays ) * RemDays ),
                MyDim[DimValue] <> "Do not want this"
            )
        RETURN
            Result
    )
)
