Very simple:
Just strike the common numbers (2, 1) of both dice, then remaining numbers on the both dice are 5-4.

Earlier I was bit too confused about rule 2 now I understand.
It says If there are two common faces then and one is at common position then remaining faces (two faces left) that will be opposite to each other.
i.e In position 1 there are three faces 2 5 1. In position 2 there are three faces 4 2 1.
Two common faces (1 at common position and 2 not at common position) exactly fit in rule 2 description. So the remaining left is 5 and 4 they will be opposite to each other.
Total six faces in two position (3+3) = (1 2) & 5 + (1 2) & 4 common.
So 5 and 4 left they are opposite.
Only difference between rule 2 & rule 3 is that in rule 3 only one faces is common and that is at common position.

The question is opposite to face 5 points.
Lets see the both dices in points = 5, 2, 1 and 4, 2, 1. (all are nearest points right).
2 and 1 is common for both the dices.
4 only come to opposite side and so on 2 and 1 are already near to 5.
Hence 4 is the answer.
