column with number and percentage data types

Hi,

I have the below data in power bi.

 

TargetType
2Num
2Num
2Num
0.97Per
0.97Per
0.97Per
0.05Per
1Per

 

I want to convert as mentioned below.

 

TargetType
2Num
2Num
2Num
97.00%Per
97.00%Per
97.00%Per
5.00%Per
100.00%Per

i tried with the new column as 

Target_New = IF('Table'[Type] = "Num", 'Table'[Target], FORMAT('Table'[Target],"Percent") )

but was not successful.

Any assistance on this is much appreciated.

 

Regards,

Pavan.

You can make that work by making both as text

 

Target_New = IF('Table'[Type] = "Num", 'Table'[Target] & "", FORMAT('Table'[Target],"Percent") )
