Let's break this down. We're going to add 1294 and 6236 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 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 9 & 3 in column 2 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 2 in column 3 and get 5.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 6 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 1294 + 6236 = 7530.
