OK, let's do this. We've got 1384 and 993 and we're adding them all 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 8 & 9 in column 2 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 9 in column 3 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 0 in column 4 and get 2.

So, 1384 + 993 = 2377.
