We have numbers 627 and 8551. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 1 in column 1 and get 8.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 5 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 8 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 627 + 8551 = 9178.
