Let's break this down. We're going to add 5528 and 2072 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 2 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 0 in column 3 and get 6.

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