OK, let's do this. We've got 2124 and 2957 and we're adding them all 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 2 & 5 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 9 in column 3 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 2124 + 2957 = 5081.
