Let's break this down. We're going to add 288 and 3856 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 6 in column 1 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 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 2 & 8 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 3 in column 4 and get 4.

So, 288 + 3856 = 4144.
