We've got two numbers: 8456 and 2909. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 9 in column 1 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 0 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 9 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 8 & 2 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 8456 + 2909 = 11365.
