Let the number of mangoes in the smaller box be n.

Then, according to the question, we have:

                                            8n\ +\ 4\ =\ 100

or                                                      8n\ =\ 100\ -\ 4\ =\ 96

or                                                         n\ =\ 12

Hence, the number of mangoes in the smaller box is 12.
