We have numbers 5509 and 6302. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 2 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 0 in column 2 and get 1.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 6 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 5509 + 6302 = 11811.
