We've got two numbers: 1590 and 696. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 6 in column 1 and get 6.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 9 in column 2 and get 18.
We'll write down the last digit 8 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 6 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 1 & 0 in column 4 and get 2.

So, 1590 + 696 = 2286.
