Average of Average

Hi All, 

 

I am trying to figure out how to approach this calculation. 

 

I have three measures per day. I need to average each days average and then take the average of those averages over a given time. 

 

 

DayItem1Item2Item3Average
Monday1131.66666667
Tuesday2222
   Avg. Of Avg1.83333333

 

What I am ultimately looking for is the number that is in red. I can do this in excel super quick but cant seem to rationalize how to get the same result in PowerBI. 

 

Perhaps I am overthinking this but I cant seem to work this one out! 

 

THanks, 

 

Nick

I used GROUPBY to create a DAX table and then calculated the Average per line. I was then able to use this. Thanks for the ideas guys!!!

I didnt properly lay out how my data is formatted. It is more like what is below.

 

What I want to calculate is the numbers in red ultimately. 

 

I already have the "yellow" and "Blue" groups set up with relationships. 

 

The average section is the sum of time / sum of calls. So it is actually a averate time/call type measurement.

Any thoughts?

hi, 

 

If the value in red is all you need, just insert a measure. 
Measure = AVERAGE('name of your table'[Average])

I think you are struggling because of how your data is set up ( assuming what you put below is how it is set up).  But going off that just did a simple unpivot other column in Power Query:

Then it's just a simple average formula:

Avg = AVERAGE('Avg of Avg'[Value])
