We've got two numbers: 4697 and 5225. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 5 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 9 & 2 in column 2 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 2 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 5 in column 4 and get 9.

So, 4697 + 5225 = 9922.
