Okay, we are tasked with adding 3111 and 9724. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 4 in column 1 and get 5.

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

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 3 & 9 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3111 + 9724 = 12835.
