We are presented with 5208 and 223. Let's work out the sum.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 2 in column 2 and get 3.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 0 in column 4 and get 5.

So, 5208 + 223 = 5431.
