The correct option is A 10
The given sequence is a combination of three series :
I. 1st, 4th, 7th, 10th, 13th terms i.e. 2, 4, 6, 8, ?
II. 2nd, 5th, 8th, 11th terms i.e. 1, 4, 7, 10
III. 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th terms i.e. 2, 5, 8, 11
Clearly, I consists of consecutive even numbers. So, the missing term is 10.
