100 showing as 1

I am trying to create a pie chart based out of ranges 

0-25%

25-50% etc 

however when I pull the data through 100% comes up as 1 

 

The ony solution i could find was to put '   ' around the 100% in the orginal data sheet. 

 

Can anyone help with this ?

 

 

  • Hi Jay2022 ,
    You can solve this by any of the below 2 methods:
    1. Change the format of your field to percentage (Preferred)



    2. Create a calculated column using DAX or create a new column from Power Query Editor which multiplies your numeric field to 100. (Not preferred since it will just increase the dataset size unnecesarily)

    Hi there!

     

    Your 100% showing as 1 issue is likely caused by Power BI interpreting percentages as decimal values. In Power BI, percentages are stored as decimal numbers (e.g., 100% is stored as 1.0).If your original dataset contains 100%, it is being read as 1 (since 100% = 1 in decimal form).When displayed in a visual without formatting, 1 appears instead of 100%.

    You should go to data view and see what needs to be formatted. 

    If the values are stored in decimal format (e.g., 1 for 100%), you can create a calculated column in DAX:

    Percentage_Display = Table[YourColumn] * 100 (Use this column in visuals where you need 100 instead of 1.)

     

    Hope this helps!

    😁😁

  • My format is general not percentage since my other options are 20-50%, 50-75% etc
