Hi @drrai66

 

I would go into the Power Query Editor, then click on Add Column in the Ribbon.

Then click on Custom Column and put in the following code below.

NOTE: This will work as long as your columns A and B are set to a data type of Whole Number

Text.From([A]) & "/" & Text.From([B])

Which then has the following result.
