Let's solve this addition problem. We have 1617 and 9361, and we need to add them together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 6 in column 2 and get 7.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 3 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 9 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 1617 + 9361 = 10978.
