Let's break this down. We're going to add 3117 and 9610 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 0 in column 1 and get 7.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 6 in column 3 and get 7.

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, 3117 + 9610 = 12727.
