How to calculate mode of invoice rates using DAX

Hi,

Using DAX in Power BI I'm trying to calculate the modal rate using a database of invoice line details where rate multiplied by quantity equals the line total.
I can calculate the modal rate based on line/row entries, in the dataset, but I need to consider the mode based also on the quantity to give me a per unit based result rather than per line.

The line level formula I have is:

= MINX(
		TOPN(1,
				ADDCOLUMNS(
							VALUES(InvoicesandCredits[Rate]),
							"Frequency",
							CALCULATE(COUNT(InvoicesandCredits[Rate]))
							),
				[Frequency],
				0),
		InvoicesandCredits[Rate])

I assume I'm missing something quite simple,
Thanks.
