Multiply Number By Percentage

Hi all,

 

I want to create a new measure which mutiplies 'unique workers' by the 'Holiday %' 

 

However because the percentage column is stored as 0.061 whole number to display as 6% it doesn't calculate properly

 

The result gives 0 as it is trying to calculate 346 x 0.061

 

how can i get around this?

Hi @HenryJS ,

 

According to my understanding, all you want is calculate Unique Workers *Holiday(%) , right?

Please check:

1. Are they original data or measures ?

2. Is the data type of Holiday(%) decimal or int?

3. Do you set the result to more decimal to display? 

 

If these do not make sense, could you please share me with your pbix file after removing sensitive data to help us clarify your scenario?

 

Best Regards,
