No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 4953 and 4612 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 2 in column 1 and get 5.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 in column 3 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 4953 + 4612 = 9565.
