Let's solve this addition problem. We have 9572 and 8831, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 1 in column 1 and get 3.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 3 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 8 in column 3 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 9572 + 8831 = 18403.
