We have numbers 519 and 8404. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 4 in column 1 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 4 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 8 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 519 + 8404 = 8923.
