Let's break this down. We're going to add 1296 and 3329 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 9 in column 1 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 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 2 & 3 in column 3 and get 6.

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

So, 1296 + 3329 = 4625.
