    Hi Herndon_powerbi ,

     

    I have done it in two ways, please check:

     

    • Use DAX:
    NewTable using DAX = 
    var _t1=SUMMARIZE('Table1',"subject","english","total_marks",SUM(Table1[english]))
    var _t2=SUMMARIZE('Table1',"subject","maths","total_marks",SUM(Table1[maths]))
    var _t3=SUMMARIZE('Table2',"subject","science","total_marks",SUM('Table2'[science]))
    return UNION(_t1,_t2,_t3)

     

     

    • In Power Query:

    For Table1:  select english and maths column -->click "Unpivot columns"--> select Attribute column --> click "Groupby"

    For Table2:  select science column -->click "Unpivot columns"--> select Attribute column --> click "Groupby"

    And then click "Append Queries as new " to create a new table like this:
