OK, let's do this. We've got 4973 and 2490 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 0 in column 1 and get 3.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 9 in column 2 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 4 in column 3 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 4973 + 2490 = 7463.
