Let's solve this addition problem. We have 7023 and 8045, and we need to add them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 5 in column 1 and get 8.

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

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 8 in column 4 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 7023 + 8045 = 15068.
