We've got two numbers: 2096 and 5801. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 1 in column 1 and get 7.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 8 in column 3 and get 8.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 5 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 2096 + 5801 = 7897.
