Okay, we are given 9001 and 9016. Let's add them up step by step.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 1 in column 2 and get 1.

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

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

So, 9001 + 9016 = 18017.
