Let's break this down. We're going to add 1848 and 1639 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 9 in column 1 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 3 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 6 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 1 & 1 in column 4 and get 3.

So, 1848 + 1639 = 3487.
