Let's solve this addition problem. We have 9 and 771, and we need to add them together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 2 and get 8.

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

So, 9 + 771 = 780.
