what decimal value got rounded in Razor view?

Question

My model contains a decimal column, I have checked inside Controller action it has decimal values like below:

0.69874
0.78562

Strange though, when they appear on web page, they are rounded and they become 0.70

My model class has this property as:

  public virtual decimal Rate { get; set; }

Inside view code is:

<td>@(Html.DisplayFor(m=>row.Rate))</td>

Can you please guide why it is being round automatically and what I should do to stop this, I want to display what ever is real value.

Much thanks for your guidance and helping me.

Try adding a Display attribute on the property in question

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:F3}")]
public virtual decimal Rate { get; set; }
