Start with 1000 and add 40 to it.
Now add another 1000.
Now add 30, and add another 1000.
Now add 20.
Now add 1000 and finally add 10.
What is the total?

Looks like you got it right! I can't see any trick question here.

This is supposed to be a trick questions if you don't see but only hear the numbers. If you are not careful, the last calculation will end up in something like 4090 + 10 = 5000, which is obviously not correct.
However, congrats to K and Kristina
