Default Subtracting Rounded Numbers

Format the original numbers (without the ROUND() function) to Number and
select 1 decimal place and only ROUND() the result of the subtraction.

I have two cells that I am trying to subtract. Say A1 is 4.0 and B1 is
1.55,
both are formatting with ROUND, so A1 rounds to 4.0 and B1 rounds to 1.6.
When subtracting these in cell C1, with ROUND function, it reads 2.4. It
is
subtracting 1.55 from 4.0 instead of 1.6 from 4.0. How do I get it to
subtract the final rounded number?
