percent of grand total

I'm sure this is super easy but I'm brand new to BI and DAX language.

 

I have following example

 

Invoice     Amt

1               281.02

2               189.52

3              1,983.14

 

I want to create a measure that will make percent of total. 281.02/2,453.68

 

Currently I'm getting 100% I should get 11% for invoice 1. Not sure what is wrong in my formula but something must be.

 

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

@rlingua2234  add following measure and change format to %. 

 

% of GT = 
DIVIDE( SUM( Table4[Amt] ), CALCULATE( SUM( Table4[Amt] ), ALL( table4 ) )  )
