We have numbers 7549 and 9941. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 1 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 4 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 9 in column 3 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 9 in column 4 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 7549 + 9941 = 17490.
