We've got two numbers: 2731 and 6541. Let's find their sum.

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

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 5 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 2731 + 6541 = 9272.
