how to calculate average based on text data against days of weekday

I have occupancy data where it shows the name of staff (cardholder column, text data) against the date and time (rounded column) from the period of 23/08/22 to 24/10/22

 

from all this data i can create a summary based on the second picture 

 

However, i wanted to show the average of the count of cardholders(staff) against the days throughout that whole period instead of of a summary

 

is there anyone who can explain me how i can do this please?

 

i would really appreciate a response from anyone as i am struggling with this one

Hi @Maz_0102 , 

Please refer to my pbix file.

Create a measure.

average = var _day=CALCULATE(COUNT('Table'[Date]),ALL('Table'))
var _card=CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Cardholder]),ALL('Table'))
return
_day/_card

Hi @Maz_0102 ,

What  is the data like? Does the count of cardholders(staff)  contain duplicate people? The days mean that check-in time for everyone?

 

Could you please provide some sample data without privacy information and desired output with more details.
