**Problem Analysis**
To determine the least value of A, we need to find the value that makes the six-digit number 98113A divisible by 9.
**Divisibility Rule for 9**
A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.
**Solution**
To find the least value of A that makes 98113A divisible by 9, we need to find the sum of the digits of the number.
**Sum of Digits**
The sum of the digits in the number 98113A is:
9 + 8 + 1 + 1 + 3 + A = 22 + A
**Divisibility Test**
To determine if the sum of the digits is divisible by 9, we need to test different values of A.
- If A = 3, then the sum of the digits is 22 + 3 = 25, which is not divisible by 9.
- If A = 4, then the sum of the digits is 22 + 4 = 26, which is not divisible by 9.
- If A = 5, then the sum of the digits is 22 + 5 = 27, which is divisible by 9.
- If A = 6, then the sum of the digits is 22 + 6 = 28, which is not divisible by 9.
**Conclusion**
The least value of A that makes the six-digit number 98113A divisible by 9 is A = 5. Hence, the correct answer is option c.
