OK, let's do this. We've got 6178 and 689 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 9 in column 1 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 2 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 6 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 0 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 6178 + 689 = 6867.
