We've got two numbers: 5234 and 2480. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 1 and get 4.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 8 in column 2 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 4 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 2 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 5234 + 2480 = 7714.
