No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 4038 and 3778 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 1 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 7 in column 2 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 3 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 4038 + 3778 = 7816.
