We've got two numbers: 3031 and 3838. Let's find their sum.

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 3 & 3 in column 2 and get 6.

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

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 3 in column 4 and get 6.

So, 3031 + 3838 = 6869.
