Detailed Solution

Magnetic field in ⊗ direction is increasing. Therefore, induced current will produce magnetic field in ⊙ direction. Thus, current in both the loops should be anticlockwise. But as the area of the loop on the right side is more, induced emf in this side will be more compared to the left side loop.Therefore, net current in the complete loop will be in a direction shown below:
