How about solving this problem by yourself? Faced any problems? What did you try?

In my opinion
1. *i= value in the memory location with address 5 (for ex:200)
2. &*i=address where 200 is stored ie, taking 200 as a value (for ex:6505)
3. *&*i=value in the memory address 6505 which is equal to 200.
Am i correct or did some misake.

Why not create a small test program to try it out?

*(&(*i))

Such expression doesn't make sense, because i is an integer variable and cannot be dereferenced. You may try yourself with a C compiler.

you mean *i is not possible?

If i is an integer variable then *i is not possible.
