No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 1048 and 5124 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 4 in column 1 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 2 in column 2 and get 7.

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

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

So, 1048 + 5124 = 6172.
