OK, let's do this. We've got 2142 and 7491 and we're adding them all together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 9 in column 2 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 4 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 2142 + 7491 = 9633.
