Okay, we are tasked with adding 4405 and 1712. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 2 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 1 in column 2 and get 1.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 1 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 4405 + 1712 = 6117.
