Answer / kamaldeep
I got AB3 as out put, when ever we are moving X(3) to 9(3) then 1st 2 bytes will be moved right(i.e. AB) but last byte will have '3' as C=+3

Answer / chandrababu
We will get 123 not AB3..why because
A = +1 J = -1
B = +2 K = -2
C = +3 L = -3
D = +4 M = -4
E = +5 N = -5
F = +6 O = -6
G = +7 P = -7
H = +8 Q = -8
I = +9 R = -9
So will get 123 for ABC..
