We have numbers 2945 and 9031. Let's start adding them together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 5 & 1 in column 1 and get 6.

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

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 9 & 0 in column 3 and get 9.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 9 in column 4 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 2945 + 9031 = 11976.
