Answer»

Correct option is (A) 1

For 6a53435 to divisible by 3, sum of its digits must be divisible by 3.

\(\therefore\) 6+a+5+3+4+3+5 is divisible by 3.

\(\Rightarrow\) 26+a is divisible by 3.

Therefore, possible values for a are 1, 4 & 7.

\(\therefore\) Least possible value of a is 1.

Correct option is (A) 1
