How can I sum two measures?

Hello,

 

It seems very dumb but I can't figure out how to sum two measures I've created.

In a very simple way, my data looks like the table below. I have a change between two materials and to get the total of itens changed I've created two measures, one for the total of items getting in and one for the one's getting out.

 

But I need to know how many in's and out's I have. Is there a way to sum the measures created?

Tried the one + other but it didn't work.

 
InOut
AA123   RR123
AA456 TT456
BB789 YY789

 

For instance, the table above should give me a total of 6.

@martinsdaniele Must be more to the story here because if you had two measures like:

In Measure = COUNTROWS('Table'[In])

Out Measure = COUNTROWS('Table'[Out])

 

You could create a measure: Total Ins and Outs = [In Measure] + [Out Measure]

 

If you put that into a card visualization that would give you 6. But, like I said, I am assuming that there is more to this.
