Let's solve this addition problem. We have 2188 and 6255, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 5 in column 1 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 5 in column 2 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 6 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 2188 + 6255 = 8443.
