Let's break this down. We're going to add 5264 and 9017 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 1 in column 2 and get 8.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 9 in column 4 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 5264 + 9017 = 14281.
