change 0.5 to 0.5%

Hi everyone,

 

I have a got the number of 0.5, and I would like to show it as 0.5% , but when I applied % in power BI, it becomes 50%.

Is there any way can do that in Power Bi please? Many thanks!

Can you divide the column by 100 and then apply the percentage format? This is probably the best approach.

 

If not, you can apply a custom format that just tacks on a percentage sign. (Use the backslash to escape the percentage character from being interpreted in the normal way.)
