We've got two numbers: 9628 and 9017. Let's find their sum.

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

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 0 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 4 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9628 + 9017 = 18645.
