Divide by total sum without getting divided into category

Hello,
I have below table. I created average days and total sales measures.

CategoryDaysSales
AB352345
AF89265
AG2450
AF802376
AG344596

 

Now I want to divide each category by the total like sales total is 9632 so I want to divide each category sales like category AF has total sales of 169 divided by 9632. Same goes with other as well. Similarly I want to divide average days with average days measure total of 52.4 for each category.Kindly help. I am new to it.
Thank you

Hi  @syedjunaid11  , if I have understood you correctly, you have to create this 2 measures: 

 

Avg_days-Avg_total = var avg_total= CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[Days]),ALL('Table'))
return
divide(CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[Days]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Categoy])),
avg_total,"-")

 

Sum_days-Total_sales = var sales_total= CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Sales]),ALL('Table'))
return
divide(CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Days]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Categoy])),
sales_total,"-")

 

The result

Hi,

If Days and Sales are measures, then how can Category entries repeat in your visual?
