Sure thing! We've got 8509 and 42 and we're gonna add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 2 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 4 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 0 in column 3 and get 5.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 0 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 8509 + 42 = 8551.
