Okay, we are tasked with adding 1045 and 2263. Let's begin!

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 3 in column 1 and get 8.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 6 in column 2 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 2 in column 3 and get 3.

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

So, 1045 + 2263 = 3308.
