So H is coded as 1, A as 3, R as 5, D as 7

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).
