This is not really a concern of MVVM.

Solution 1

Please see my comment to the question. Do you want to see binding in each and every piece of UI and data? :-)
No matter what you do, everything boils down to this:

C#

decimal value = //...
MyTextBox.Text = value.ToString();
// ...
if (decimal.TryParse(MyTextBox.Value, out value))
   // use value... :-)

Solution 2

Set the Text property with a public property defined in ViewModel class. set the decimal value to that property binded with TextBox Control.

Please find the solution in this link
Bind Decimal Value in textbox[^]

also you can use string format as follows

HTML

<TextBox Text="{Binding TransactionDetails.TransactionAmount, Mode=TwoWay, 
UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged,StringFormat=N2}" Grid.Column="3" 
Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Grid.Row="5" x:Name="TextBoxAmount" />
