find correlation between a value and a category in power bi

Hello, I have a dataset called plane_crashed. There are several columns, among them are "Operator" and "Known Fatalities". Operator is the name of the plane that crashed and Known Fatalities is the number of fatalities that happened in the plane. I would like to find the correlation between the plane that creashed and fatalities. I tried using the correlation coefficient from the quick measure section but for that, you need two values and a category but I simply want to know the correlation between a value and a category, if someone could please help me, I would appreciate it

I have looked into it already, for my analysis, I need to find correlation between a categorical and a continous variable - the example you provided is not what I am looking for, thank you!
