I don’t think the question is correct. The product of three roots = - Const/ coefficient of cubic term which yields -(-6)/2=3. Since product of two roots is 3 then the third one has to be 1. But 1 can’t be the root of equation. As one can easily subtitle x=1 in the equation and see it doesn’t...

Will 59.4% marks read as 60% or not in Aggregate/gross marks? Without decimal what will be the Aggregate /gross marks of 59.4% marks. 

No, because if you round off to 59.4%, you will get 59%. If it could have been 59.5% or more, then you could have round it off to 60%.
