We've got two numbers: 6711 and 5079. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 9 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 7 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 0 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 5 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 6711 + 5079 = 11790.
