Let's break this down. We're going to add 2006 and 8962 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 6 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 9 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 8 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 2006 + 8962 = 10968.
