We are presented with 7146 and 1082. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 8 in column 2 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 0 in column 3 and get 2.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 1 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 7146 + 1082 = 8228.
