We've got two numbers: 5219 and 7038. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 8 in column 1 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 3 in column 2 and get 5.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 7 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 5219 + 7038 = 12257.
