We are presented with 505 and 6943. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 3 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 4 in column 2 and get 4.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 9 in column 3 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 6 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 505 + 6943 = 7448.
