Let's solve this addition problem. We have 1961 and 4901, and we need to add them together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 0 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 3 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 4 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 1961 + 4901 = 6862.
