Okay, we are tasked with adding 9228 and 9163. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 3 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 1 in column 3 and get 3.

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

So, 9228 + 9163 = 18391.
