We are presented with 3740 and 7517. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 1 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 5 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 7 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 3740 + 7517 = 11257.
