Question

I would like to concatenate the two measures below please to show a number then the percentage in brackets on a card in Power BI.

1. NumberWithin3Days = DIVIDE([AdmissionsWithin30Days],[TotalReferrals])
2. PercentageWithin3Days = DIVIDE([AdmissionsWithin30Days],[TotalReferrals],0)+0

Can anyone help please?

Answer 1

You can create a new measure to concat that two measures. This might help you get your answer :

Concatenated_Measure = 
VAR NumberWithin3Days = [NumberWithin3Days]
VAR PercentageWithin3Days = [PercentageWithin3Days]
RETURN
    CONCATENATEX(
        VALUES('AnyTable'[AnyColumn]),  -- Use any table you have and column
        NumberWithin3Days & 
        " (" & 
        FORMAT(PercentageWithin3Days, "0.00%") & 
        ")", 
        ", "
    )
