Answer: The required missing number is 10.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the missing number in the following proportion :


?:14=15:21.

Let the missing number be represented by x.

Then, according to the given information, we have


x:14=15:21\\\\\Rightarrow (x)/(14)=(15)/(21)\\\\\\\Rightarrow (x)/(14)=(5)/(7)\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=(5)/(7)*14\\\\\Rightarrow x=10.

Thus, the required missing number is 10.
