We've got two numbers: 5209 and 3252. Let's find their sum.

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 & 5 in column 2 and get 6.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 3 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 5209 + 3252 = 8461.
