For this type of "the largest number which..." questions, you need to advance from left to right, using the largest possible digit in each case. For the first two digits, that would be 9, for the third digit (the right-most digit), the largest digit which will make this possible is an 8.
That depends a lot on how often you may repeat each digit, and what operations are allowed. If you just want to write a four-digit number, using each digit once, start by writing the largest digit on the left, then continue with the second-largest, etc.
9876 is the largest four digit number you can make if all the digits must be different.
