Divide 2 Columns with condition

Hey, 

I would like to divide on column by another (but only by specific value).  So I have a table with oil/gas prices for all Europe in EUR (column weekly price per l) on specific dates of time. I would like calculate prices for all countries in PLN only. 

So let's say Bulgaria has price for Euro-Super 96 for 1,7241 Euro on 4th on July. Conversion rate in PLN for this date is 0,21314. So my outcome would be - Euro-SUper 95 on 4th of July cost 8.120519

I wonder if it's possible with DAX? I could create a conversion rate table and join it by date and then I guess it would work.

Hi @Anonymous 

Thanks for reaching out to us.

>> So let's say Bulgaria has price for Euro-Super 96 for 1,7241 Euro on 4th on July. Conversion rate in PLN for this date is 0,21314. So my outcome would be - Euro-SUper 95 on 4th of July cost 8.120519

please try this,

Column = 
var _Country="Bulgaria"
var _WeeklyPWPI=MAXX(FILTER('Table','Table'[Country Name]=_Country && 'Table'[Prices in force on]= EARLIER('Table'[Prices in force on]) && 'Table'[Product Name]= EARLIER('Table'[Product Name])),[Weekly Price with per I])
var _divide=DIVIDE(_WeeklyPWPI,'Table'[Euro exchange rate])
return IF('Table'[Country Name]="Poland", _divide)

in this column code, _WeeklyPWPI returns 1,7241
