We've got two numbers: 4472 and 4079. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 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 7 & 7 in column 2 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 3 and get 5.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 4 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 4472 + 4079 = 8551.
