Okay, we are tasked with adding 9412 and 9693. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 3 in column 1 and get 5.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 9 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 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.
