Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 5 in column 2 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 9 in column 3 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 4 and get 19.
We'll write down the last digit 9 and carry the 1 to the next column.
