We have numbers 8471 and 5037. Let's start adding them together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 3 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 4 & 0 in column 3 and get 5.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 5 in column 4 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 8471 + 5037 = 13508.
