The given information can be represented as:
X * (X - 1) = X^2 - 4
Now, since it is mentioned that the result obtained by multiplying X by a number 1 less than itself is 4 less than multiplying X by itself,
we can set up the equation:
X * (X - 1) = X * X - 4
or, X^2 - X = X^2 - 4
or, -X = -4
So, X = 4
