    Hi wcd1213 ,

    According to your description, here's my solution. Create a calculated column.

    Column =
AVERAGEX (
    FILTER (
        'Calculated Table',
        'Calculated Table'[Name] = EARLIER ( 'Calculated Table'[Name] )
    ),
    [M1]
)

Hi v-yanjiang-msft , 

Thank you for the reply.

I tested this expression and the column is not averaging by name. Is there something else I can add to the formula to acheive this?

Hi wcd1213 ,

I create a sample and it averages by name as expected.

Do you have some difference with me?

 

I attach my sample below for your reference.

    Hi v-yanjiang-msft ,

    I looked at your sample and i used the same expressions. However the table I am working on is summarized from two other tables. 

    Here is the expression I used to summarize the columns. 

    And here is my expression for getting the average.

      Hi wcd1213 ,

      According to your snapshot, isn't 4.2857 the average of the name Will? If not, what the 4.2857 really is.

      I recreate a sample like you, and it still get the correct result.

      You can download my sample below to see the details.

        Hi v-yanjiang-msft 

        4.2857 is the average of all of M1. I just realized my screenshot did not include the next name Joe. That average is the same:

        I need the averages to be split between names.
