Here the given series is 396, 462, 572, 427, 671, 264.

In all the terms, the middle digit is the sum of first and third digit except 427.

So the Odd number in the given series is 427.

From all the hints given, 

only 042 satisfies and it unlocks the key.

Apply a3 + b3 + c3 - 3abca2 + b2 + c2 - ab - bc - ca = a + b + c

Hence the answer is  1.5 + 4.7 + 3.8 = 10.

'Jettison' means to discard and 'salvage' means to rescue something discarded. Hence, 'salvage' is the word which is farthest in meaning to the given word 'Jettison'.

Given nuber series is 15, 30, ? , 40, 8, 48 

Here the number series follows a pattern that

15

15 x 2 = 30

30 ÷ 3 = 10

10 x 4 = 40

40 ÷ 5 = 8

8 x 6 = 48

Hence, the missing number in the series is 10.

The relative pronoun acts as the subject or object of the relative clause. It replaces words like she, he, him, her, they, them etc.

It is, therefore, wrong to repeat the pronoun in the relative clause.

Hence, the correct sentence is Shreya, who is my best friend, is a singer.

20% of a = b 

=> (20/100) * a = b 

 b% of 20 =(b/100) x 20 = [(20a/100)  / 100] x 20= 4a/100 = 4% of a.

Given 373+353+283-3x37x35x28372+352+282-37x35-35x28-37x28

It is in the form of

 a3+b3+c3-3abca2+b2+c2-ab-bc-ca= a + b + c

Here a = 37, b = 35 & c = 28 

=> a + b + c = 37 + 35 + 28 = 100

Therefore,   = 100
