Let's get this math done. We have 8794 and 8165 and we're going to add them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 5 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 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 7 & 1 in column 3 and get 9.

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

So, 8794 + 8165 = 16959.
