Let's break this down. We're going to add 2285 and 4388 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 8 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 & 8 in column 2 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 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 2 & 4 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 2285 + 4388 = 6673.
