My calculation preferences is showing as having 2 decimal…but the fill area here is showing a round-up number 7 m2 when it should be 6.75 m2. How do I set to fill area to show the exact area 6.75 m2?

Lengths and areas can be set different.
You'll find it at the project preferences >dimension settings.
When done, save it.

(Sorry for german screenshot – but I'm sure you'll figure it out 😉

That is actually a 'Dimensions' setting and not a calculation setting.
