We have numbers 897 and 3399. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 9 in column 1 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 2 and get 19.
We'll write down the last digit 9 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 3 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 897 + 3399 = 4296.
