We are presented with 9800 and 5870. Let's work out the sum.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 2 and get 7.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 3 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 5 in column 4 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9800 + 5870 = 15670.
