We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 4 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 1 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 4 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.
