Percentage Calculation

Hi there,

 

Sorry for a very basic query but I havent been able to find a solution online.

I have two columns in my table (Booked and Total) and want to find the utilisation for booking. The columns are various medical specialities. Howver when I try this formula -  

 

Utilisation = Utilisation[Booked]/(Utilisation[Total]) or Utilisation = SUM(Utilisation[Booked])/SUM((Utilisation[Total]))
 
The percentages are never calculated correctly. Is there anyone who can please help me
 
Thank you

Make Sure you are creating a measure 

Percentage = SUM('Table'[Booked])/SUM('Table'[Total])
And format it as %
