We have numbers 9116 and 1573. Let's start adding 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 & 7 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 5 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 1 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9116 + 1573 = 10689.
