We are presented with 554 and 1250. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 1 and get 4.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 5 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 1 in column 4 and get 1.

So, 554 + 1250 = 1804.
