We have numbers 5490 and 790. Let's start adding them together.

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 9 & 9 in column 2 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 0 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 5490 + 790 = 6280.
