We have numbers 7239 and 4098. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 in column 1 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 9 in column 2 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 4 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.
