We have numbers 2857 and 9208. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 1 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 0 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 in column 3 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 2857 + 9208 = 12065.
