Sure thing! We've got 9940 and 8041 and we're gonna add them together.

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

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 0 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 in column 4 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9940 + 8041 = 17981.
