Let's get this math done. We have 1715 and 4242 and we're going to add them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 2 in column 1 and get 7.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 2 in column 3 and get 9.

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