How to get percentage of total rows when grouping by a column?

I have the below table:

Person

Inventory

A

Red

B

Red

A

Blue

A

Yellow

B

Blue

C

Yellow

 

I have a report that allows me to filter by 'Person'. When I select a 'Person', I would like a Card to display the percentage of total inventory that 'Person' has.

 

For example, when 'A' is selected it would show 50%, when 'B' is selected it would show 67%, etc.

 

How would I go about doing this?

This Measure should do it

Measure =
DIVIDE (
    COUNTA ( 'Table'[Inventory] ),
    CALCULATE ( COUNTA ( 'Table'[Inventory] ), ALL ( 'Table' ) ),
    0
)

Perfect, it looks like that works. 

 

I had been using this which was working:

Measure = COUNTROWS('Table') / COUNTROWS( ALL('Table') )

 

Yours does the trick too. Thanks for the help.
