We have numbers 6382 and 2042. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 2 in column 1 and get 4.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 4 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 3 & 0 in column 3 and get 4.

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

So, 6382 + 2042 = 8424.
