Sure thing! We've got 1261 and 2688 and we're gonna add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 8 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 8 in column 2 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 2 in column 4 and get 3.

So, 1261 + 2688 = 3949.
