We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 in column 2 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 4 and get 8.
