Divide problem

Hi Everyone,

 

I am trying to create one divide column. I created the Load calculated column as I need to do. Secondly, I use filter to create Pallets column. Now I want to divide the Pallets to Load. I am getting wrong answer. 

If anyone can help will be appreciated. I have "PK" which I try to use as filter but it still not resolve. 

Thanks

@Anonymous , formula seems correct, Assume both Pallets and load are measures not column and the new formula is also measure

 

if they are column then it should be

 = Divide(sum(Table[Pallets]),Sum(Table[load]))

@Anonymous - Need to know if these are columns or measures. Need the calculations for the measures.

 

Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

@Anonymous , the final divide should be measure. I am not able to see your calculation. Can you post all that in text format?

 

Can you share sample data and sample output in a table format? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data.
