To calculate the grand total of all the regions, you should use the following Level of Detail (LOD) expression: **B. { FIXED : SUM(Sales) }** This expression calculates the sum of sales across all regions, regardless of any dimensions in the view.

Selected Answer: B
B. { FIXED : SUM(Sales) } Leaving it blank means that it shouldn't be grouped by or fixed on a particular dimension. The calculation will simply compute total sales for the entire database. This is the least granular calculation for total sales

You can not use table calculations in fixed calculations. If you tried to enter that calculation in Tableau it would tell you "LODs can not be used with table calcs or attribute functions"
