how to get Average grand row total

I have matrix chart which shows % of row total.  I just dragged "Sales" field in value and used "Percent of row total".  But I want my grand ROW total to display % Average instead of Sum.  What formula should I use?

Hi @summer18 ,

 

Try the following measure:

AverageValue =
VAR Percent_value =
    DIVIDE (
        SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
        CALCULATE (
            SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
            ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Sub-Category] )
        )
    )
RETURN
    IF (
        HASONEVALUE ( 'Table'[Sub-Category] ),
        Percent_value,
        AVERAGEX (
            SUMMARIZE (
                'Table',
                'Table'[Sub-Category],
                "Average_total",
                    VAR Percent_value_2 =
                        DIVIDE (
                            SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
                            CALCULATE (
                                SUM ( 'Table'[Value] ),
                                ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Sub-Category] )
                            )
                        )
                    RETURN
                        Percent_value_2
            ),
            [Average_total]
        )
    )
