Okay, we are tasked with adding 2508 and 7482. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 8 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 4 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 2508 + 7482 = 9990.
