We are presented with 2099 and 1176. Let's work out the sum.

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 & 1 in column 3 and get 2.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 1 in column 4 and get 3.

So, 2099 + 1176 = 3275.
