We have numbers 3815 and 8671. Let's start adding them together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 7 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 6 in column 3 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 8 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3815 + 8671 = 12486.
