Let's break this down. We're going to add 2940 and 6814 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 4 in column 1 and get 4.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 1 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 in column 3 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 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, 2940 + 6814 = 9754.
