def solve():
x, l, n = map(int, input().split())

min_erased = -1
max_erased = x
while max_erased - min_erased > 1:
erased = (min_erased + max_erased) // 2

cur_x = x - erased
good = True
for it in range(n):
if cur_x > l:
good = False
break
cur_x *= 2

if good:
max_erased = erased
else:
min_erased = erased

print(max_erased)


def main():
t = int(input())
for i in range(t):
solve()
