We have numbers 5434 and 6044. Let's start adding 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 3 & 4 in column 2 and get 7.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 0 in column 3 and get 4.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 6 in column 4 and get 11.
