Let's solve this addition problem. We have 1722 and 6537, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 1 and get 9.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 5 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 & 6 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 1722 + 6537 = 8259.
