Let's solve this addition problem. We have 3897 and 745, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 5 in column 1 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 4 in column 2 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 7 in column 3 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 0 in column 4 and get 4.

So, 3897 + 745 = 4642.
