We have numbers 2157 and 9620. Let's start adding them together.

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

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 6 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 2157 + 9620 = 11777.
