This is working for me.
<?php
$paged = ( get_query_var('paged') ) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array(
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'post_type' => 'faqs',
'paged' => $paged
);
$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
<?php if( $the_query->have_posts() ): ?>
<?php while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>
<h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
<p><em><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?> at <?php the_time('g:i a'); ?></em></p>
<p><?php the_field('response'); ?></p>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<nav class="pagination">
<?php
$total_pages = $the_query->max_num_pages;
if ($total_pages > 1){
$current_page = max(1, get_query_var('paged'));
echo paginate_links(array(
'base' => get_pagenum_link(1) . '%_%',
'format' => 'page/%#%',
'current' => $current_page,
'total' => $total_pages,
'prev_next' => True,
'type' => 'plain',
));
}
?>
</nav>
