How to calculate the percentage based on column and slice selection

Hi team, I am very new to Power BI and come across my first question,  I have a table where contains the sales amount and team, dates, sample as below: 

Agent name Agent TeamSales dateSales total
LucyTeam A30/07/20203
Marin Team A31/09/20202
CharcyTeam B1/08/20201
Chris Team C2/08/20205

 

I am using Agent team as a slice in Power BI,  then I want to calculate the percentage of Sales of each person baes on my selection of teams,  for example, if I dont select any team then it will be calculated based on the whole table, the result will be like: 

 Sales total Percentage
Lucy327.27%
Marin 218.18%
Charcy19.09%
Chris 545.45%

but if I select Team A, the percentage will need to calculates based on the total sales of Team A. 

 Sales total Percentage
Lucy360.00%
Marin 240.00%

I know we can use the "Percentage of grad total" to show similar results, but I would like to create it as a measure so I can re-use this value.

I tried to use DAX below: 

Pct Team =
VAR Personal =
sum('table'[Sales Total])
VAR ALLteam=
SUMX(
all('table'),
'table'[Sales Total]
)
DIVIDE(Personal, ALLteam)
But that won't give what I want, anyone can help pls? : )
