We have numbers 6731 and 5851. Let's start adding them together.

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

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 5 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 3 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 5 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 6731 + 5851 = 12582.
