Wrong answer.
How can remainder will be 3 when 214 is divided by 5?
The Correct answer should be 60k-2.
Where k is any integer.

If x is a power of numbers, then.
(5^2) + (12^2) = 25 + 144 = 169.
Which is equal to 13^2 = 169.
So, the value of x is 2.
(5^2) + (12^2) = 25 + 144 = 169.
Which is equal to 13^2 = 169.
So, the value of x is 2.

I guess this is wrong question as how it is possible to get 3 as a remainder when 214 is divisible by 5? Please tell me.

We don't need to divide 214 by 5 but quotient obtain by dividing 214 by 4, i.e. 53. Further you will get 3 as remainder.

Sir I have other problem, please help me.
(5)x + (12)x = (13)x.
x is power of numbers. Then what would be value of x?
(5)x + (12)x = (13)x.
x is power of numbers. Then what would be value of x?

First, divide 214 with 4 quotient = 53,
Now divide 54 with 5 quotient = 10,
Now with 6 quotient = 1.
Now divide 54 with 5 quotient = 10,
Now with 6 quotient = 1.

How is it possible? The answer is 238.
