Let's break this down. We're going to add 2044 and 147 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 in column 1 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 4 in column 2 and get 9.

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

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

So, 2044 + 147 = 2191.
