Let's break this down. We're going to add 2099 and 76 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 in column 1 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 7 in column 2 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 0 in column 3 and get 1.

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

So, 2099 + 76 = 2175.
