We have numbers 9942 and 9614. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 4 in column 1 and get 6.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 1 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 in column 3 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 4 and get 19.
We'll write down the last digit 9 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9942 + 9614 = 19556.
