We've got two numbers: 1812 and 6445. Let's find their sum.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 5 in column 1 and get 7.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 4 in column 2 and get 5.

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 & 6 in column 4 and get 8.

So, 1812 + 6445 = 8257.
