Having issue with counting results of a measure

Hi! I'd like to count the number of months over a target margin but the measure I wrote is giving me an error:

 

Months over Target Margin = 
VAR Target = 
DIVIDE(
    [2022 Total Amount Converted] - [2022 Total Costs], [2022 Total Amount Converted]
)
return
    CALCULATE(
        COUNTA('Calendar'[Month]),
        Target >= .5
    )

I'm pretty new to DAX so any help is appreciated!

@Arete , Try like

 

Months over Target Margin =
VAR Target =
DIVIDE(
[2022 Total Amount Converted] - [2022 Total Costs], [2022 Total Amount Converted]
)
return
CALCULATE(
COUNTROWS(Filter(Values('Calendar'[Month]),Target >= .5))

)

Thanks for the reply! It looks like it's working but I need the discount count of months:

It should be 7 but instead, it says 13. Any suggestions?

@amitchandak any suggestions?
