Directions to Solve
Each of the following questions consists of five figures marked A, B, C, D and E called the Problem Figures followed by five other figures marked 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 called the Answer Figures. Select a figure from amongst the Answer Figures which will continue the same series as established by the five Problem Figures.

Select a figure from amongst the Answer Figures which will continue the same series as established by the five Problem Figures.
Problem Figures: Answer Figures:
(A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
Answer: Option
Explanation:

The Pattern: The number of arcs that get inverted in each step follows the sequence: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3.
Step-by-Step Analysis:
From (A) to (B): One arc is inverted in the ACW direction.
From (B) to (C): Two arcs are inverted in the ACW direction.
From (C) to (D): Three arcs are inverted in the ACW direction.
From (D) to (E): The sequence resets, and one arc is inverted.
Determining the Answer: To continue the series from Figure (E), the next step requires inverting two arcs in the ACW direction. Applying this specific change to Figure (E) results in Answer Figure (1).

The given solution to the question is just confusing. Here's a clear one I think.
The arcs get inverted (faces opposite) anti-clockwise in a sequence of one arc, then the next two, then the next three and repeat!
So it goes like;
1(inverted one arc - the first one at the top),
1,2( Invert the next two), * remember you're moving in an anticlockwise direction.
1,2,3 ( invert the next three arcs) and repeat.
