We've got two numbers: 142 and 2851. Let's find their sum.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 5 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 8 in column 3 and get 9.

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

So, 142 + 2851 = 2993.
