No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 4358 and 7998 and adding them all up.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 9 in column 2 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 4358 + 7998 = 12356.
