Let's solve this addition problem. We have 986 and 4397, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 7 in column 1 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 9 in column 2 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 3 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 0 & 4 in column 4 and get 5.

So, 986 + 4397 = 5383.
