Multiplying measure to calculate percentage

I'm trying to create a measure that calculates a flat 30% off the values of a different measure.

 

I've tried the following, which doesn't seem to calculate properly:

 

30% Margin = SUM('Sheet1'[Revenue]) * (100/30)

Hi @js124 

If you want 30% OFF, try:

M1 = SUM('Sheet1'[Revenue]) * (70/100)

If you want 30% of the value:

M2 = SUM('Sheet1'[Revenue]) * (30/100)
