Correct Answer: 8


Solution : Given:
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, ?, 13, 21

Here, add the first term to the second to obtain the third term, then add the second term to the third to obtain the fourth term, and so on.
1 + 1 = 2; 1 + 2 = 3; 2 + 3 = 5; 3 + 5 = 8; 5 + 8 = 13; 8 + 13 = 21

So, the required term is 8. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
