Okay, we are given 1821 and 2308. Let's add them up step by step.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 8 in column 1 and get 9.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 3 in column 3 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 1821 + 2308 = 4129.
