Convert DAX expression table into a scalar

How to convert the following DAX expression to a scalar?

SELECTCOLUMNS(FILTER(rules, rules[RuleNumber] = 1), "AntecedentID", [AntecedentID])

This returns a table with a single cell, but I need a scalar value.

Tried wrapping the expression into a VALUES or a MAX, but no luck.

@webportal , not very sure I got it. Try like

 

maxx(FILTER(rules, rules[RuleNumber] = 1), [AntecedentID])

 

or like

calculate(maxx(values([AntecedentID]), [some meausre]),FILTER(rules, rules[RuleNumber] = 1))
