Let's solve this addition problem. We have 3516 and 9443, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 3 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 4 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 4 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 9 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3516 + 9443 = 12959.
