populating a colmnn based on the aggregate of a number of rows expressed as a %

So, i have 2 models Tasks and Subtasks, in each model I have pulled in data from a 3rd model which contains the weight of the task and subtask.

 

What i need to do is populate the task model with the total work completed from the children subtasks

 

Input - Subtasks

 

keyparentStatusWeightValue
 12345 11111in progress100
 23456 11111new75

0

 34567 11111done55
4567811111done7575
 56789 11111done1010
5432112345in progress50
4321012345done75

75

 

Output - not sure what the best thing to do here is, as I want to work out the % of work completed - Tasks Model

 

KeyStatusValue(from subtasks) %
1111in progress51.42
12345in progress93.76

 

Thanks in advance for any information on how to do this.

@Anonymous , In this this should a new measure

 

Divide(Sum(Table[Value]), Sum(Table[Weight]))

 

or

 

Divide(Calculate(Sum(Table[Weight]), Filter(Table,Table[Status]="Done"))  , Sum(Table[Weight]))

@amitchandak thanks, i took the first one and after messing around a while realised it worked and was looking at the data incorrectly.
