Hello,
I'm really new to PowerBI and don't know any DAX yet 😞
I'm trying to create a column visual which shows values as a percentage of the sum of two values from another chart.
I've run a survey.
How do I do this?
question 2 - chart 2
Question 1 - chart 1
Thank you very much for your help! 🙂

Hi @JWorthy,
Please create two measures using the formula and add it in clusted column chart, you will get expected result as follows.
Percentage1 = DIVIDE(COUNT('Question 1'[Response]), CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Question 1'),ALL('Question 1')))
count = COUNT('Question 2'[Response])
You can download the .pbix file for more details.

Hi @v-huizhn-msft,
Thanks for coming back to me.
I'm trying to do something slightly different. In the second chart, instead of calculating a % of the question 2 responses, I'd like to calculate the question 2 response as a % of 2 of the question 1 responses.
I'd like the second chart to show:
% of respondents who have chosen option A, B, C & D =
(Number of respondents who have chosen option A, B, C & D for question 2)
/
((Number of respondents who have selected option x for question 1)
+
(Number of respondents who have selected option y for question 1))
Does that make sense?
Thanks,
J
