We are presented with 9440 and 5340. Let's work out the sum.

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

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 4 & 3 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 5 in column 4 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9440 + 5340 = 14780.
