How memory size are needed if address lines are 9k?

If there are 9,000 address lines, it implies that the system can address (2^{9000}) different memory locations. However, this is an impractically large number since the addressable space would be astronomically high. Instead, if you meant 9 kilobytes (kB), then the memory size would be 9,000 bytes, which is equivalent to 9 kB. For a more precise answer, clarifying the context of "9k" would be helpful.

How does the Fetch Decode Execute work?

The program counter in the processor holds the address of the next instruction needed from main memory. The program counter copies its contents into the memory address register. The memory address register then sends the address along the address bus to main memory and the contents of the memory location specified by the address are sent along the data bus to the memory buffer register. The contents of the memory buffer register are then copied to the current instruction register where they are decoded and executed.
