We have numbers 9835 and 2885. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 5 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 3 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 2 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9835 + 2885 = 12720.
