Help with simple measure

I have data that shows Card Reads. I need to calculate the following and be able to use "State" as the legend

 

% = ([Unique card reads] / [Unique card reads in Jan. 2020]) * 100%

 

Basically divide every month's card reads by that value in Jan 2020, broken down by State. I tried hardcoding it and it still doesn't work but I"d like to not have it hard coded and have it in a measure.

    Hi bhmiller89 ,

    = CALCULATE([Unique card reads] / [Unique card reads in Jan. 2020]) * 100%), ALLEXCEPT(table, table[state]))

     

    Thanks

    Try :
    Hope you have a DATES table connect to the fact table:

    % = 
    DIVIDE(
        [Unique card reads],
        CALCULATE(
             [Unique card reads],
             Date[Year] = 2020,
             Date[Month] = 1,
        )
    )
