Solution

The given series is a geometric sequence where each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor.

Here, each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 1/2.

So, the missing term in the series is obtained by multiplying the last given term (1/4) by 1/2.

Therefore, the missing term is 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8.

So, the correct option is 1/8.
