Need to change data format of Scientific values

Hi guys, In the table I have the values in Scientific format but I need to change the format
from 6.11E-001 to 6.11E-1. I tried reducing decimal places but it's changing the digits before mathematical sign like 6.11E-001 to 6.1E-001. Can you please suggest how I can achieve this in Power BI.

Note: I am using Directquery and data source is Snowflake.
