Rounding Higher Roots in Engineering Documentation

A mechanical engineer is approximating a radius using the expression 514\sqrt[4]{51}. The calculator displays 2.6723451177{}2.6723451177\dots. Based on the standard rounding rules for two decimal places, state the final rounded value the engineer should record and identify the specific digit in the thousandths place that determined whether to round up or stay the same.
