Solution

In table of 999, last 3 digit decreased by by one each time .
999*1=999
999*2=1998
999*3=2997
so after (1000 -123 =) 877 times last 3 digit will be 123 .
here we can see that it is in abb pattern .
So value of abc can be 877 .
Now putting the value of abb = 877 we get abb*999 = 876123 .
which is satisfying the RHS .
So value of a,b,c will be 8,7,6 respectevely
