Let's solve this addition problem. We have 749 and 990, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 0 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 9 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.

So, 749 + 990 = 1739.
