Non Verbal Reasoning - Series - Discussion

How is it assuming those curves are moving ACW (Anti-Clockwise)? Like CW (Clockwise) rotation is shorter for them.

Step 1 : Look at Figure (A). take it as a Base position.
Step 2 : Check Figure (B). only one curve is changed (top one)
Step 3 : Check Figure (C). Here, two curves are changed (compare the figure with the previous figure, like now our base figure is Figure (B))
Step 4 : Check Figure (D). Here, three curves have rotated if we compare it with Figure (C)
So, every time there is 1+ change. Also, every time our Base figure is the previous one.

Step 5 : Check Figure (E); here is only one change from the previous base figure. But we expected 4 changes this time, but this time we got only 1, like Figure (B)! So, that means we are in a loop! Now we need only 2 changes in the next figure.

Now we have 3 options! Option 1, 4 and 5.

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 meaning of anticlockwise is the direction in which we looking into the figure.

Name 1,2,3,4,5 to each symbol in the anticlockwise direction and then reverse the direction of each symbol,

In B the 1 symbol is reversed.
In C following anticlockwise direction reverse the direction of 2,3.
In D now 4,5,1.(Remember since we need to reverse a total of three).
In E now 2( reversing only one).

In next step 3,4(reversing two symbols).

I hope it will be clear now.

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.

Note that 1 arch (upper arch) moved anticlockwise (downwards) in (B).

Note that 2, 3 (leftmost arches) are moved anticlockwise in (C).

Note that 4, 5, 1 (right most arches and upper arch) are moved anticlockwise in (D).

Note that 2 arch (leftmost arch) is moved anticlockwise in (E).

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1, 2, next will be 3, 4.

So it's time to move 3, 4 arch anticlockwise which is in (1) image.

That's all.

Guys take it this way!

Let A) b initial figure.

Now observe fig B) , here topmost arc is tilted, and only one arc tilted in move 1 from initial fig. A).

Now move 2. Make 2 arcs tilted from fig B) i.e. Left most arc below top most and the arc next to it in ACD.

Now move 3. Tilt the next 3 arcs.

Move 4 make only 1 tilt.

Then move 5 make 2 arcs tilted we get answer fig 1.

Take (A).

note that 1 arch moved anticlockwise in (B).
note that 2,3(anticlockwise) are moved anticlockwise in (C).
note that 4,5,1(anticlockwise) are moved anticlockwise in(D).
note that 2 arch is moved anticlockwise in (E).

So its time to move 3,4 arch anticlockwise which is in (1) image.
that's all.

I can't understand the series reasoning.

So, please anyone clearly explains how to understand the series reasoning aptitude.

If it's one, two, three sequences, i.e top left, bottom left, then top right, bottom right, shouldn't the answer be 3?

Top is initial position (it is inverted first in b).

Move anticlockwise direction for further movement.
