Let's break this down. We're going to add 118 and 2148 together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 8 in column 1 and get 16.
We'll write down the last digit 6 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 4 in column 2 and get 6.

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

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

So, 118 + 2148 = 2266.
