Divide the number of rows for a specific objective

Hi,
I have two tables that follow this structure:

Response Table

Year  Month  Type  Year-Month-Type                     
202201A2022-01-A
202201A2022-01-A
202201B2022-01-B
202202A2022-02-A
202202C2022-02-C


Objective Table

Year-Month-Type    Objective    
2022-01-A4
2022-01-B1
2022-01-C6
2022-02-A3
2022-02-B2
2022-02-C5


Each Type of response has a different objective number for each year and each month.

I already created a relationship between the Year-Month-Type columns in both tables. I want to create a measure that divides:
Count of rows from the Response Table by the objective for that year, month and Type (Objective Table):

So, based on the example tables above, the measure should show the following values :

Year 2022
Month 1 -> Type A ->  (rows in the response table) / (objective for that year-month-type) =  2/4 = 50%
Month 1 -> Type B -> (rows in the response table) / (objective for that year-month-type) = 1/1 = 100%
Month 1 -> Type C -> (rows in the response table) / (objective for that year-month-type) = 0/6 = 0%

Month 2 -> Type A ->  (rows in the response table) / (objective for that year-month-type) =  1/3 = 33,33%
Month 2 -> Type B -> (rows in the response table) / (objective for that year-month-type) = 1/2 = 50%
Month 2 -> Type C -> (rows in the response table) / (objective for that year-month-type) = 0/5 = 0%

Can someone help mep?

@Anonymous add a measure:

 

% = 
DIVIDE( 
   COUNTROWS ( ResponseTable ),
   MAX ( ObjectiveTable[Objective] )
)

 

In a visual, use Year-Month-Type from the objective table and above measure and that will do it.
