We have numbers 2558 and 1728. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 1 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 2 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 7 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 2 & 1 in column 4 and get 4.

So, 2558 + 1728 = 4286.
