The correct answer is A. 813510[012345]. The range to block is 8135100 through 8135105 (six numbers ending in digits 0 through 5). Option A, '813510[012345]', uses a bracket expression to match exactly the last digit being 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 - covering precisely this range. Option B, '813510[12345]', omits 0 and would

Explanation
The range to block is 8135100 through 8135105 (six numbers ending in digits 0 through 5). Option A, '813510[012345]', uses a bracket expression to match exactly the last digit being 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 - covering precisely this range. Option B, '813510[12345]', omits 0 and would miss 8135100. Option C, '813510[^0-5]', is a negation pattern that matches everything EXCEPT 0–5, which is the opposite of the intent. Option D, '81XXXXX', is far too broad and would match millions of numbers. Option A is the most specific pattern that covers only the desired range.
