We are presented with 5015 and 259. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 9 in column 1 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 5 in column 2 and get 7.

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

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

So, 5015 + 259 = 5274.
