We've got two numbers: 2612 and 4173. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 3 in column 1 and get 5.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 7 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 1 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 4 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 2612 + 4173 = 6785.
