We have numbers 2701 and 488. Let's start adding them together.

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 0 & 8 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 4 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 2 & 0 in column 4 and get 3.

So, 2701 + 488 = 3189.
