We've got two numbers: 2947 and 1842. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 2 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 4 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 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 2 & 1 in column 4 and get 4.

So, 2947 + 1842 = 4789.
