We've got two numbers: 9860 and 5825. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 5 in column 1 and get 5.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 2 and get 8.

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, 9860 + 5825 = 15685.
