It is a four-digit whole number.
We will fill in these 4 blanks with digits:
_ _ _ _

It is greater than 4000.
It is less than 5000.
Therefore its thousands digit is 4 

4 _ _ _

Its tens digit is 3.
So we have

4 _ 3 _

The product of its hundreds digit and its ones digit is 0.
Therefore it is either 4 0 3 _ or 4 _ 3 0

It is not an even number.
That rules out 4 _ 3 0 for that is even regardless of the hundreds digit
So we have

4 0 3 _ 

The sum of its hundreds digit and its ones digit is 9.
Therefore its ones digit is 9.
And the number is

4 0 3 9

We did not need this:

Twice its tens digit is 2 more than its thousands digit.
But that is true because twice 3 is 6 which is 2 more than 4

We also did not need this:

The sum of its hundreds digit and two- thirds of its ones digit is 6.
But that is true because 2/3 of 9 is 6.

We also did not need this: 

Its tens digit is 1 less than its thousands digit.
But that is true because 3 is 1 less than 4

So we were given more information than we needed.
