Ready to do some math? We're starting with 2781 and 6821 and adding them up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 1 in column 1 and get 2.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 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 7 & 8 in column 3 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 2781 + 6821 = 9602.
