Let's get this math done. We have 8646 and 1962 and we're going to add them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 9 in column 3 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 1 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 8646 + 1962 = 10608.
