Let's solve this addition problem. We have 2594 and 204, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 4 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 0 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 2 in column 3 and get 7.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 0 in column 4 and get 2.

So, 2594 + 204 = 2798.
