How to use multiselected values

I got lead data from Salesforce. A lead can be active in multiple industries. In Salesforce a multiselect field can be used to select all the common industies.  I would like to show the quantity or percentage of leads per industry. PBI is currently creating a unique value for every industry combination. Below a attached a printscreen of the data.

Hi, @Oomsen ;

Measure = DIVIDE(COUNT([IndustryMuti_]),CALCULATE(COUNT([IndustryMuti_]),ALL('Table')))

@v-yalanwu-msft this works well. But the % is now calculated based on the total of options. For example tank storage is 5 out of 15. But in my example there where only 12 lines, meaning only 12 leads. Some without a industry and some with multiple. When a lead have multiple industries it should be counted in all the options.

@amitchandak thanks for the respond. I splitted the column.
The question now is how can i use the seperate columns to identify my leads by industry?

@Oomsen , One of the ways is split by delimiter into rows or columns
