We are presented with 6951 and 1703. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 3 in column 1 and get 4.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 7 in column 3 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 1 in column 4 and get 8.
