We've got two numbers: 129 and 9509. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 1 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 0 in column 2 and get 3.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 5 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 9 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 129 + 9509 = 9638.
