Remove extra three braces after 2nd num function, like:

 

'Current Year:'& Num((Sum({<week = {">=$(vMinDate)<=$(vMaxdate)"}>} RTL_QTY)/Count(DISTINCT(week)),'##.00')
& ' Last Year:'&num((((Sum({<week = {">=$(vRollingStart)<=$(vRollingEnd)"},Period=>} RTL_QTY)/Count(DISTINCT(week))
-
Sum({<week = {">=$(vRollingStart)<=$(vRollingEnd)"},Period= {'LYTD'}> } RTL_QTY)/Count(DISTINCT(week))),'##.00')

I used:

='Current Year:'& Num((Sum({<week = {">=$(vMinDate)<=$(vMaxdate)"}>} RTL_QTY)/Count(DISTINCT( week))/1000000),'##.00')
& ' Last Year:'&num(Sum({<week = {">=$(vRollingStart)<=$(vRollingEnd)"},Period=>} RTL_QTY)/Count(DISTINCT( week))
-
Sum({<week = {">=$(vRollingStart)<=$(vRollingEnd)"},Period= {'LYTD'}> }RTL_QTY)/Count(DISTINCT( week)),'##.00')

and got:

the answer is not correct, it should be close to 1200,

if i select last year, then it shoould be retail quanity /52(number of weeks in a year). if i select current year from period filter, suppose current month is jan then calculation be like retail quantity/4(number of weeks in jan month) if current month is aug then calculation should be retail quanity/36(number weeks till august)  and if the current month is oct then calculation be like retail quantity/40(number of weeks till oct) .
