Hisawn,
You can follow these steps to meet your needs:
- Create a measure like this:
% Burn Rate = DIVIDE(MAX('Table'[Budget Absorption]),MAX('Table'[Budget Allocation]))
2.Change the format to Percentage, and change the number of decimal places shown from Auto to 2.
3.Create a table with the measure above, turn off the total in format setting, you will get this:

Hi,
Assuming Budget Absorption and Budget Allocation are measures, write this measure and create a bar chart
% burn rate = divide([budget absorption],[budget allocation])
Hope this helps.
