How can I write x=(5*2)/4 as a DAX expression?

I've been able to write much more complicated DAX but I seem to struggle with the basic mathematical functions. I haven't used much of it to be honest. 

So far I have:

x=DIVIDE((5*2),4)

Hey @HamidBee ,

in general your dax code is correct and should work:

x = ( 5*2 ) / 4

The question is what do you want to archive. This code only returns a static result.

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍

Best regards

Just to confirm, I don't need to write it like this:

x=DIVIDE((5*2),4)    [It turns out that this code does work]

It suffices to write?:

x = ( 5*2 ) / 4
