Hello,

 

Using power bi I am trying to find the largest disparities between users monthly date usages. I am having trouble trying to get this. 
 
Here is an example data set, I am not sure if I should add a column to put the calculations in. I want to be able to have show through a visual too.

See the working here - Open a blank query - Home - Advanced Editor - Remove everything from there and paste the below code to test

let

I got this to work for the table that I put up there. This is what I want! How would I change the source to the files that I am using? 
And would I have to get rid of anything else in the text?

Get the data of your source in PQ.

Select entire table and do a changed type to set data type.

Open Adavanced Editor and paste following code after Changed type step (don't forget comma after Changed type step)

    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"Username"}, {{"Max", each List.Max([#"Data usage (GBs)"]), type nullable number}, {"Min", each List.Min([#"Data usage (GBs)"]), type nullable number},{"Diff", each List.Max([#"Data usage (GBs)"])-List.Min([#"Data usage (GBs)"]), type nullable number}})
in
    #"Grouped Rows"
