Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 7 in column 2 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 2 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 9 in column 4 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.
