Average Measure : matrix row and sub row calculation

Hi

 

I have a table which lists Vehicle Type, Vehicle Id, Date, Journey Id and Journey Duration.

Each Vehicle Id completes multiple journeys across multiple dates.

I am need a measure that not only calculates the Average Total Duration by Vehicle ID but also at the higher Vehicle Type level.

 

My matrix visual looks something like this.......

I know the issue relates to the count of distinct dates which at Vehicle Type level equals 3, the same as each Vehicle ID.  I need the measure to take into account the number of vehicle ids when calculating the average at Vehicle Type level.

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

looks like I've now solved this using.....

 

Measure =
var _tbl1 = SUMMARIZE(Vehicle_Journey, Vehicle_Journey[vehicleId], Vehicle_Journey[StartDate],"a",sum(Vehicle_Journey[Journey Duration]))
var _average = averagex(_tbl1,[a])
return _average
