Turning numbers into percent's with calculations

[RichOB]

Hi, I need help with some calculations for a survey.

In the example below the survey consists of 3 questions that are always in number form, “I Am Happy, I am Sad, I Am Neither”. The most 1 person can score per question is always 5 which means the total possible survey score is always 15. I need help with calculations to change them into percentages. The Total by City doesn't have a fixed number to calculate against (like 15 above) as it always changes due to the number of people within the city varying. 

1 – Total by City. How can I turn the numbers into % based on the amount of people who took the survey:

• For example, 5 people from Newcastle took the survey so the total possible score is 75. They scored 66….66 / 75 x 100 = Newcastle average total score is 86.7%

2 – Total By Question – How can I get the % based on the score per question:

• For example, Newcastle scored 21 out of 25 for “ I Am Happy “ = all people in Newcastle who picked I Am Happy is 84%

3 – Total By Person - For example, if Person 1 scored 13 out of 15, their score is 86.6%

I hope this makes sense, happy to give more information and thanks in advance.

Person	Completion time	I Am Happy	I Am Sad	I Am Neither	Area	City	Pet
1	03/01/2024	4	4	5	North	Newcastle	Dog
2	11/01/2024	5	5	5	North	Newcastle	Dog
3	25/01/2024	3	3	4	North	Newcastle	Dog
4	29/01/2024	4	4	5	North	Newcastle	Cat
5	01/02/2024	5	5	5	North	Newcastle	Cat

Hi @RichOB ,

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) My test data is the same as yours.

(2) We can create measures. 

Total By city = 
var _a=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Person]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[City]=MAX('Table'[City])))
var _b=_a*15
var _c=CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[City]=MAX('Table'[City])))
RETURN DIVIDE(_c,_b,0)

Total By Question = 
var _a=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Person]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[City]=MAX('Table'[City])))
var _b=_a*5
var _c=CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[City]=MAX('Table'[City]) && 'Table'[Attribute]=MAX('Table'[Attribute])))
RETURN DIVIDE(_c,_b,0)

Total By Person = 
var _a=CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]),FILTER(ALLSELECTED('Table'),'Table'[Person]=MAX('Table'[Person])))
var _b=15
RETURN DIVIDE(_a,_b,0)

(3) Then the result is as follows.
