Let's break this down. We're going to add 1811 and 408 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 1 & 0 in column 2 and get 1.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 4 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 1 & 0 in column 4 and get 2.

So, 1811 + 408 = 2219.
