Suggested Answer:

Explanation:

To create a calculation item that changes the context from the selected date to month-to-date (MTD), the appropriate DAX expression involves using the CALCULATE function to alter the filter context and the DATESMTD function to specify the month-to-date context.
The correct completion for the DAX expression would be:
* In the first dropdown, select CALCULATE.
* In the second dropdown, select SELECTEDMEASURE.
This would create a DAX expression in the form:
CALCULATE(
SELECTEDMEASURE(),
DATESMTD('Date'[DateColumn])
)
