OK, let's do this. We've got 971 and 680 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 0 in column 1 and get 1.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 2 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 in column 3 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 971 + 680 = 1651.
