Not to worry, we've got 1288 and 1284. Let's get to adding them!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 4 in column 1 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 2 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

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

So, 1288 + 1284 = 2572.
