Ready to do some math? We're starting with 821 and 9900 and adding them up.

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

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 9 in column 3 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 9 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.
