Let's solve this addition problem. We have 5174 and 8797, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 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 7 & 9 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 1 & 7 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 8 in column 4 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 5174 + 8797 = 13971.
