We've got two numbers: 7377 and 9878. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 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 7 & 7 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 3 & 8 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 9 in column 4 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 7377 + 9878 = 17255.
