Let's break this down. We're going to add 1486 and 2148 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 8 in column 1 and get 14.
We'll write down the last digit 4 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 4 in column 2 and get 13.
We'll write down the last digit 3 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 2 in column 4 and get 3.

So, 1486 + 2148 = 3634.
