Use the number of dropdown slicer selections as a variable in simple Divide calc column?

In the screenshot below I want to use the Numer of Sprints in the dropdown to pass as a variable in a simple divide(sum) statement.. is this possible? I'm using a hard-coded 3 now as you see.

 

 

 

Sprint Velocity2 =
        DIVIDE(SUM('Sprint Burndown'[Sprint Done Points]), 3 )
