Alright, let's solve this problem step by step. We have 2098 and 7511 and we're adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 1 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 1 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 0 & 5 in column 3 and get 6.

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

So, 2098 + 7511 = 9609.
