—

• Next, add the rightmost column (units place):
  **6 + 7 = 13**. Write down 3 and carry over 1 to the next column (tens place).
• Proceed to the tens place:
  **5 + 6 = 11**, plus the carry-over 1 gives **12**. Write down 2 and carry over 1.
• Now, add the hundreds place:
  **2 + 9 = 11**, plus the carry-over 1 gives **12**. Write down 2 and carry over 1.
• Finally, add the thousands place:
  **7 + 1 = 8**, plus the carry-over 1 gives **9**. Write down 9.

The sum of the numbers is written as:
