OK, let's do this. We've got 542 and 664 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 4 in column 1 and get 6.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 6 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 542 + 664 = 1206.
