So basically you can add it with column addition or just simply break it down

Think about it lets break down 12 i got 10 and 2
then you can add it more easily

you could do 5019+10=519
then add 2 to get 521

Or you could do this

509
12 +
______
521

so basically toy add 9+2 to get 11
then you carry the 1
then you do 1+1=2
then the 5 is left

so finally you get left with 512

You always work from left to right
