In a translation, the lengths of the sides of the triangle remain unchanged. Therefore, since ΔA'B'C' is a translation of ΔABC, the side lengths of ΔA'B'C' will be the same as those of ΔABC.

In your provided information, we understand:

- AB = 5 units
- BC = 3 units
- AC = 6 units

Since we're specifically interested in the length of side A'C', we can look at the corresponding side in triangle ABC which is AC. Hence, the length of A'C' will also be 6 units.

So, the answer is:

**A. 6 units**
