We've got two numbers: 6552 and 5716. Let's find their sum.

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

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

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 6 & 5 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 6552 + 5716 = 12268.
