Calculation in table

I have a table with me which has a column of category names. I need to get the count of every category and the percentage of the category with total in a visual table/matrix. For example, like this

ProductsnosPercent
A318.75%
B425.00%
C318.75%
D318.75%
E318.75%
Total16100.00%


Please guide me with a solution

Sorry, I thought "nos" was an actual field. 
Try:

Count Products = 
COUNT('Table'[PRODUCTS])
% Over totals =
DIVIDE (
    [Count Products],
    CALCULATE ( [Count Products], ALL ( 'Table'[PRODUCTS] ) )
)

The ID column will not affect the calculations

Try

% over total =
DIVIDE (
    SUM ( Table[nos] ),
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table[nos] ), ALL ( Table[Products] ) )
)

Hi, Why should I need to do sum? I need the count value. 

the nos column is the count of every category.

 

 

lets say that my column is like this 

 

PRODUCTS
A
A
A
B
B
B
B
C
C
C
D
D
D
E
E
E

 

from this, I wan to get the count of every category and also the percentage.  like this in table / matrix visual

 

ProductsnosPercent
A318.75%
B425.00%
C318.75%
D318.75%
E318.75%
Total16100.00%

Sorry, I thought "nos" was an actual field. 
Try:

Count Products = 
COUNT('Table'[PRODUCTS])
% Over totals =
DIVIDE (
    [Count Products],
    CALCULATE ( [Count Products], ALL ( 'Table'[PRODUCTS] ) )
)

This helps a lot. But I got another doubt. What if I have ID column which has duplicate values like this

idPRODUCTS
1A
1A
2A
2B
3B
3B
4B
5C
6C
7C
8D
8D
9D
10E
11E
12E

 

if this is the table, I should be doing  distinct count ?

 

please guide me with a logic
