We've got two numbers: 2549 and 2556. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 6 in column 1 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 5 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 5 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 2 & 2 in column 4 and get 5.

So, 2549 + 2556 = 5105.
