Okay, we are tasked with adding 684 and 186. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 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 8 & 8 in column 2 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 1 in column 3 and get 8.

So, 684 + 186 = 870.
