An electronic device rearranges numbers step-by-step in a particular order according to a set of rules. The device stops when the final result is obtained. In this case the device stops at Step V.
Input: 85 16 36 04 19 97 63 09

Step IV - 97 85 63 36 19 16 04 09
Step V - 97 85 63 36 19 16 09 04
If the output of Step IV is as given below, what was the input?
