No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 2452 and 7536 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 3 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 5 in column 3 and get 9.

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

So, 2452 + 7536 = 9988.
