Answer 2

Answer:

 smaller number is 5079

Step-by-step explanation:

let, larger number be x and smaller number be Y  

                    by first condition

         X -Y = 4093 ------- (1)

                   

                   by second condition

                    X   =   9172

   putting X =  9172 in equation (1)

            X-Y = 4093

           9172 - Y = 4093

           9172 - 4093 = Y

          5079 = Y

∴ smaller number is 5079
