We have numbers 9000 and 8967. Let's start adding them together.

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 0 & 6 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 9 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 in column 4 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9000 + 8967 = 17967.
