Let's break this down. We're going to add 4010 and 5698 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 8 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 9 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 6 in column 3 and get 7.

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

So, 4010 + 5698 = 9708.
