No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 6543 and 8299 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 9 in column 1 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 9 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 5 & 2 in column 3 and get 8.

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

So, 6543 + 8299 = 14842.
