We've got two numbers: 2168 and 1719. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 9 in column 1 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 1 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 7 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 1 in column 4 and get 3.

So, 2168 + 1719 = 3887.
