Removing Leading Zero in the MVC project

I have my code in the MVC project in the following.

Razor form code below ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

@Html.DisplayFor(model => model.fico222)        Which displays fico score (String) Ex: 0790
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Model class code below---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        [DisplayName("Credit Score")]
        public string fico222 { get; set; }

----------- I wanted the returning fico score return with 790 instead of 0790 so how can I change that in my syntax??  
Thank you!

Try this line of code for yours.
@Html.DisplayFor(model => model.fico222.TrimStart('0'))

Sorry about that, this should work. In your model change 
[DisplayName("Credit Score")]
public string fico222 { get; set; }

//To this

private string _fico222;

[DisplayName("Credit Score")]
public string fico222
{
	get { return _fico222.TrimStart('0'); }
	set { _fico222 = value; } 
}
