We've got two numbers: 9842 and 6209. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 in column 3 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 in column 4 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9842 + 6209 = 16051.
