OK, let's do this. We've got 8542 and 2150 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 0 in column 1 and get 2.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 5 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 in column 4 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 8542 + 2150 = 10692.
