Excess - 3 - code is also known as self-complementing code which means 1's complement of an excess - 3 number is the excess - 3 code for the 9's complement of the corresponding decimal number.

Example:

1  in binary is 0001

excess 3 code is 0001 + 0011 = 0100

1's complement of the above code is 1011 which is 11 

11 is excess 3 code for 8

and 9's complement of 1 is 8
