Hi
I am trying to make a simple devision in PowerBI, by adding a new column (see column below: Area / (DIR/2). This column is calculated by deviding the column "Area" by column "DIR/2".
For some of the rows the calculation works fine, but for 1 row the value returned says "Infinte" and for another row the value returned is NaN. Anybody who can help?
Please see the attached table

Use DIVIDE() and proper Parentheses.
DIVIDE(<numerator>, <denominator> [,<alternateresult>])
