Date Difference between 2 Columns

Hello,
I have a 2 table with
table A contains Start & End dates as of which i need to calculate the difference between them
Table B contains 2 other columns which i need to use as a filter.

The dax formula used is as below, but the result is far from right (it should give me only around 21 weeks but it is giving me 72 weeks

No.of Fabrication Weeks =
VAR SelectedActivityDescription = SELECTEDVALUE(ActivtiyLevelProgress[ActivityDescription])
VAR SelectedCustomText01 = SELECTEDVALUE(Equipment[CustomText01])
VAR TotalDuration =
    CALCULATE(
        SUMX(
            Equipment,
            IF(
                Equipment[CustomText01] = SelectedCustomText01,
                DATEDIFF(Equipment[InstallationStart], Equipment[InstallationEnd], WEEK)
            )
        ),
        FILTER(
            ActivtiyLevelProgress,
            ActivtiyLevelProgress[ActivityDescription] = SelectedActivityDescription &&
            ActivtiyLevelProgress[Progress] = 100
        )
    )
RETURN

Hi @Anonymous without model, it is hard to spot what could be wrong. Still, please check FILTER part of CALCULATE (ActivtiyLevelProgress[Progress] = 100)
