Let's solve this addition problem. We have 3229 and 6957, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 7 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 2 & 5 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 6 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3229 + 6957 = 10186.
