AS HARD is coded as "1357" and SOFT is coded as "2468"
So H is coded as 1, A as 3, R as 5, D as 7
and S as 2, O as 4, F as 6, T as 8

Now in 21448, go number by number
2 is the code for S
1 is the code for H
4 is the code for O
and
8 is the code for T

hence, 21448 will stand for SHOOT

The maximum area of the triangle will come when the given sides are placed at right angles. If we take 8 as the base and 5 as the height the area = ½ x 8 x 5=20

The edge of the new cube is = 33+43+53 = a3 => a = 6 m.

SP of first article = 1000

Profit = 20%

CP = 100100+P×SP= 5000/6 = 2500/3

SP of second article = 1000

Loss = 20%

CP = 100100-L×SP= 5000/4 = 1250

Total SP = 2000

Total CP = 25003+ 1250 = 6250/3

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = (6250/3)- 2000 = 250/3

Loss Percent =250362503×100= 4%

Putting A=1, B=2, C=3,..., M=13,....,X=24,Y=25, Z=26, we have :

 JR = J + R2 + 2 = 10 + 18 2 + 2 = 16

CK = C + K2 + 2 = 3 + 112 + 2 = 9

TX = T + X2+ 2 = 20 + 242 + 2 = 24

OS = O + S2 + 2 = 15 + 192 + 2 = 19

 So, the missing numbers are :

21 and 14

Hence, the answer is (b).
