OK, let's do this. We've got 5218 and 4038 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 1 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 3 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 0 in column 3 and get 2.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 4 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 5218 + 4038 = 9256.
