Okay, we are tasked with adding 4035 and 8701. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 1 and get 6.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 0 in column 2 and get 3.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 8 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 4035 + 8701 = 12736.
