% calculation using measure in matrix visual with filters

I'm trying to calculate a value (%) by using one rows value as a % of the other (total of a certain type)

AEH_0-1692891700132.png

 

The total resources booked column is a count, the resource count total is the following measure:

ResourceCountTotal =
CALCULATE(COUNT('Table1'[Type]), ALLSELECTED('Table2'[Resource Name]))

There's multiple slicers on the page, but I just can't get the measure right to calculate the resources booked as a % of the resoure count total. 

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

@Anonymous seems like you are showing different values in the visual and using different in the divide function, why you are using COUNT(Table2[Resource Name]) in the divide function?

 

ResourceCountTotal =
DIVIDE ( 
   COUNT('Table1'[Type])
   CALCULATE(COUNT('Table1'[Type]), ALLSELECTED('Table2'[Resource Name]))
)

As in like this? 

ResourceUsed% = DIVIDE(COUNT(Table2[Resource Name]), 'Table2'[ResourceCountTotal], 0)

The % calculations are incorrect, which is where I'd got to before. Complete novice, here!

@Anonymous what is the actual issue? You can divide count with the measure you show and will give you %
