We have numbers 7309 and 8815. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 5 in column 1 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 8 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 4 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 7309 + 8815 = 16124.
