Solution

The correct option is A $7$
The given sequence is $8, 15, 22, 29.....$ .
The common difference in this sequence is the difference between the consecutive terms.
So, the common difference would be $2^{n d}$ term - $1^{s t}$ term $= 15 - 8$ i.e. $7$ .
Difference between the $3^{r d}$ term and $2^{n d}$ term $= 22 - 15$ i.e. $7$ .
Thus common difference between the terms in this sequence is $7$ .
