I have a decimal number that's rounding to the nearest whole number and I can't figure out why

I've imported an Excel spreadsheet into Power BI and I have a report built on several number columns in the spreadsheet. All of the columns are formatted the following way in Excel:

 

- Number

- 1 decimal place

 

The values are displaying accurately in Excel.

 

In Power BI, I have the columns formatted as follows:

 

- Data Type: Decimal Number

- Format: Decimal Number

- Decimal Places: 1

 

All of the columns are displaying accurately in Power BI except for 1, it's rounding to the nearest whole number. I've manually changed the data in Excel to random decimal numbers, saved it, refreshed Power BI, and it's always coming in rounded to the nearest whole number. Any ideas why?
