Answer:

A 61377

B 87405

Explanation:

If sum of the digits of a number is divisible by 3, then that number is also divisible by 3.

Option A:

Given number is: 61377

Sum of the digits = 6+1+3+7+7 = 24

24 is divisible by 3, hence 61377 is also divisible by 3.

Option B:

Given number is: 87405

Sum of the digits = 8+7+4+0+5 = 24

24 is divisible by 3, hence 87405 is also divisible by 3.

Option C:

Given number is: 30898

Sum of the digits = 3+0+8+9+8 = 28

28 is not divisible by 3, hence 30898 is also not divisible by 3.

Similarly, sum of the digits of the numbers in options D, E and F are 8, 22 and 26 respectively, which are not divisible by 3, hence the numbers 6020, 29830 and 75932 are also not divisible by 3.
