We have numbers 5506 and 1772. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 2 and get 7.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 7 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 4 and get 7.

So, 5506 + 1772 = 7278.
