Numerical formats

Hello All, I am using dax measure to calculate the result for division of two counts for two columns, the issue that I always got an integer approximated result ( for example when the actual divisio...

This is not working!! The result is still Integer!! 
I can change the format to each one of this but it is only applied to the integer value for example 1, 1,00, 100%, 100.00% ... etc. The problem is in the Dax code that did the approximation!! 
I have these values for the different counts of two columns: 1024 & 860. 
so 860/1024=0.839

I got 1 & not 0.839. I hope it is now clear.

Hi Anonymous ,

 

Not sure why are you getting 1.  This is what I get.

    you are here used simply two numbers, I am using Dax calculation to divide the result of a count statement for a column by a count statement for another column!! Which didn't give me the ax act result without approximation!

      Hi Anonymous ,

       

      Dividing 2 measures also give me the formatting. Not sure why it is not showing up in your pbix.

       

       

       

       

       

      Result1 =

      var _a = FILTER(ALLEXCEPT('Table2','Table2'[Bank]), 'Table2'[ErrorType] <> BLANK())
      RETURN
      CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table2'[Process]),_a)
       
       
      Result2 = CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table2'[Process]),ALLEXCEPT('Table2','Table2'[Bank]))
       
      DivideVal = DIVIDE([Result2],[Result1])
       
       
      Below image  is for 
      DivideVal = DIVIDE([Result1],[Result2])
       
       
      Thanks
