We are presented with 2149 and 2101. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 1 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 2 and get 5.

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

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

So, 2149 + 2101 = 4250.
