Hi, @bv27718n 

 

Create a measure like below, and format it as percentage

percent change =
VAR _var =
    SUM ( 'Table'[PF Life 2020] ) - SUM ( 'Table'[PF Life] )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( _var, SUM ( 'Table'[PF Life] ) )

 result:

@bv27718n ,

Based on what I got

divide( sum(Table[PF Life]) - sum(Table[PF life 2020]), sum(Table[PF Life 2020]))
