Calculate the Sum: 7351 + 2499 Addition Problem

$\begin{aligned} &7351 \\ +& \\ &2499 \\ &\underline{\phantom{776}} & \\ \end{aligned}$

To solve the problem of finding the sum of 7351 and 2499, we will proceed with vertical addition. Here are the steps:

• Align the numbers with their rightmost digits: $\begin{array}{c} \phantom{0}7351 \\ +2499 \\ \underline{\phantom{0000}} \end{array}$
• Begin adding from the rightmost column (units):
  - Units column: $1 + 9 = 10$. Write 0, carry over 1.
• Next, move to the tens column:
  - Tens column: $5 + 9 = 14$, plus the carry of 1 gives $15$. Write 5, carry over 1.
• Proceed to the hundreds column:
  - Hundreds column: $3 + 4 = 7$, plus the carry of 1 gives $8$. Write 8.
• Finally, add the thousands column:
  - Thousands column: $7 + 2 = 9$. Write 9.

After completing these steps, the final sum is written as:

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $9850$.
