Getting field name from column and performing calculations

Dear experts,

I have a following table structure:

RatioNumerator_Field_NameDenominator_Field_NameFormula
Ratio 1Numerator 1Denominator 1
Ratio 2Numerator 3Denominator5

Numerator_Field_Name and Denominator_Field_Name are the name of the columns, which should be considered, while computing formula. Just to test, I have tried the following formula:

=$('Sum(['& Numerator_Field_Name& '])'),

but the result is always '-'.

Can someone give a hint, how to achieve this? Or is there any better way to do? The formulas are basically - min, max, sum, and fractile.

Thanks.
