Row level Totals - Miscalculation

Hi,

I am trying to calculate the total price as shown below. 

 

DAX measure i am using is = sum(quantity) * sum(price) 

 

Instead of caluclating this way : (10 *4) + (20*5) + (30*6)

i am getting total based on this logic: (10+20+30) * (4+5+6)

 

How to create a measure for this logic

(10 *4) + (20*5) + (30*6)

 

I only need to show the entire total.

Hi @Sandhya877 

to force summing the visible values 

Measure =
SUMX (
SUMMARIZE ( 'Table', [Category], [Name] ),
CALCULATE ( SUM ( [Quantity] ) * SUM ( [Price] ) )
)
