No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 5426 and 1240 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 0 in column 1 and get 6.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 4 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 2 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 5426 + 1240 = 6666.
