We are presented with 3590 and 1707. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 0 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 7 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 1 in column 4 and get 5.

So, 3590 + 1707 = 5297.
