Answer:

the shorter man

Step-by-step explanation:

224 cm minus 174.21 = 49.79

49.79/5.56= approximately 9 standard deviations from the mean.

174.21 minus 97.8= 76.41

76.41/5.56= approximately 14 standard deviations from the mean.

bc the shorter man's height is more SD's away from the mean (average) height his height difference is more extreme.
