We are presented with 1045 and 3038. Let's work out the sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 8 in column 1 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 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 0 & 0 in column 3 and get 0.

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

So, 1045 + 3038 = 4083.
