Okay, we are tasked with adding 2708 and 5162. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 6 in column 2 and get 7.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 1 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 5 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 2708 + 5162 = 7870.
