We have numbers 824 and 540. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 1 and get 4.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 5 in column 3 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 824 + 540 = 1364.
