We are presented with 277 and 5480. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 0 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 2 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 4 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 5 in column 4 and get 5.

So, 277 + 5480 = 5757.
