We have numbers 694 and 286. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 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 9 & 8 in column 2 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 3 and get 9.

So, 694 + 286 = 980.
