We have numbers 9271 and 8903. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 3 in column 1 and get 4.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 9271 + 8903 = 18174.
