58.81

Explanation:

Round to 2 decimal places by cutting off at 2 decimal places and adjusting according to the next digit.

In our example, 58.8136 truncated to 2 decimal places is 58.81 with following digit 3.

If the following digit was 5 or more, then we would add 1 to the last digit.

Since 3 < 5 we do not need to adjust the last digit.

58.8136 ~~ 58.81 rounded to 2 decimal places.
