OK, let's do this. We've got 1992 and 5985 and we're adding them all together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 in column 2 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 3 and get 19.
We'll write down the last digit 9 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 5 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 1992 + 5985 = 7977.
