Let's break this down. We're going to add 9643 and 9615 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 5 in column 1 and get 8.

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 6 & 6 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 9 & 9 in column 4 and get 19.
We'll write down the last digit 9 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9643 + 9615 = 19258.
