Hi Anonymous ,
There seems nothing error with the measure.
LTCR = DIVIDE([FirstValue] - MIN('Piping UT ex'[Tmin (mm)]), [LTC])We can calculate the ([FirstValue] - MIN('Piping UT ex'[Tmin (mm)]) first.
This part calculates well.
Let me check the measure [LTC].
LTC = ([FirstValue] - [LastValue]) * 1.33First LTC result is (12.9-12.54)=0.36. 0.36*1.33=0.4788.
Then 9.5/0.4788=19.84.
If you want the reslut 19.84 change to be 19.79. Please try to change the measure [LTC].
LTC = var _1= ([FirstValue] - [LastValue]) * 1.33 return ROUND(_1,2)Best Regards

The calculation is correct, your LTC for the top value in the example is 0.4788 not 0.48. (add decimal places to your measure to verify)
If you manually do the calculation with that value, you'll see it is right.
