How to Divide Measure by Constant

Ok, n00b here. My searching is weak so I didn't find anything that satisfied my need.

 

I have a dataset of work items. I have a lead time column present on each record. It is in minutes, and I want to create a measure that displays lead time in hours. I want that measure to be (in pseudo code):

 

lead time (hrs) = lead time / 60

 

I'm finding this difficult to do in DAX. What is your advice?

Hi @jugisahunk,

 

Please refer to below measure:

lead time (hrs) = SELECTEDVALUE(Dataset[lead time])/ 60
