Let's solve this addition problem. We have 2654 and 3843, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 3 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 4 in column 2 and get 9.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 8 in column 3 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 3 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 2654 + 3843 = 6497.
