i have % increase in one column eg 60%, 80% for various organisations and i want to show the remainder eg 40% and 20% in another so i can show stacked bar charts etc how do i create a column which deducts 100 from each percentage
i tried something like % remaing = 100 - % increase but that didn't work
Any help greatly appreciated

I am glad to help you.

You can refer to my steps to test it again and if you still have problems, please provide some sample data in text format (excluding sensitive data) in the form, or even better if you can provide a simplified pbix file. Thanks!
I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.
