Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 2 and get 7.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 3 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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