We are presented with 5428 and 9073. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 3 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 3 and get 5.

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

So, 5428 + 9073 = 14501.
