Okay, we are tasked with adding 2913 and 9984. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 4 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 8 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 3 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 2913 + 9984 = 12897.
