We are presented with 8658 and 9710. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 0 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 7 in column 3 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 9 in column 4 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 8658 + 9710 = 18368.
