We are presented with 2961 and 7568. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 8 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 6 in column 2 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 5 in column 3 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 2961 + 7568 = 10529.
