We've got two numbers: 3204 and 2693. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 3 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 9 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 2 in column 4 and get 5.

So, 3204 + 2693 = 5897.
