We have numbers 9921 and 2431. Let's start adding 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 2 & 3 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 4 in column 3 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 2 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 9921 + 2431 = 12352.
