    Hi Anonymous 

    From your example1, the value column should be Number and % column should be number percent.

    Every column has only one type , so we can't make the values in the same column have different types.

    I build a sample table to have a test.

    Build a calculated column(Value %) like example1.

    Value % =
VAR _Offered_calls =
    CALCULATE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value1] ),
        FILTER ( 'Table', 'Table'[Item] = "Offered calls" )
    )
VAR _Abandoned =
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Value1] ), 'Table'[Item] = "Abandoned" )
VAR _Answer =
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( 'Table'[Value1] ), 'Table'[Item] = "Answer" )
VAR _percent =
    SWITCH (
        'Table'[Item],
        "Abandoned",
            FORMAT ( _Abandoned / _Offered_calls * 100, 0 ),
        "Answer",
            FORMAT ( _Answer / _Offered_calls * 100, 0 ),
        "Offered calls",
            FORMAT ( _Offered_calls / _Offered_calls * 100, 0 ),
        "-"
    )
RETURN
    'Table'[Value1] & " " & _percent

    Result:

    Due to one column will have only one type, the Value% column will change the type as Text.

    For % = [column1]/CALCULATE(sum([Column1]),ALL('Table'[Column1]))
