We've got two numbers: 9808 and 9553. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 3 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 5 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 5 in column 3 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 4 and get 19.
We'll write down the last digit 9 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9808 + 9553 = 19361.
