No problem, let's work through this together. We're starting with 4259 and 579 and adding them all up.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 1 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 7 in column 2 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 5 in column 3 and get 8.

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

So, 4259 + 579 = 4838.
