We've got two numbers: 609 and 1647. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 7 in column 1 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 4 in column 2 and get 5.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 6 in column 3 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 1 in column 4 and get 2.

So, 609 + 1647 = 2256.
