I've searched online and on this forum. I haven't found an appropriate solution to my issue. I am trying to align the numbers in my table with their decimal point. I'm not exactly sure how to go about doing this.

I'd greatly appreciate any help!

AS mentioned in a comment, this is best dine with siunitx. I took the opportunity to add some improvements. Just one observation: don't use mathmode to obtain italic text – the interletter spacing is not good.
