Lookup value based on a measure

Hello,

I need help to solve this:

I have a measure, let say Sales/ Total Sales and I have a disconnected table with percetages and Amounts and I need to get the amount correponding to the percentage calculated, 

Ex. Ind Sales/ Total Sales = 95.3%

So In this case I should get 2000

 

PercentageAmount
94%1000
95%2000
96%3000

 I tried to use this formula but it's not working:

 

 Var DS=[measure]
Return MAXX(
TOPN (
1,
Table,
ABS (DS) ,ASC
), Table[Amount])

Hi @leshugaa19 ,

I use the following two tables for testing.
Table1.

Table2.

vcgaomsft_1-1651559040339.png

If you want a calculated column.

Column = 
VAR _percentage = ROUNDDOWN('Table1'[Percentage],2)
RETURN
LOOKUPVALUE('Table2'[Amount],'Table2'[Percentage],_percentage)

vcgaomsft_2-1651559214351.png

Or a measure.

Measure 2 = 
VAR _percentage = ROUNDDOWN([Measure],2)
RETURN
LOOKUPVALUE('Table2'[Amount],'Table2'[Percentage],_percentage)
