Okay, we are given 603 and 1977. Let's add them up step by step.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 3 & 7 in column 1 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 7 in column 2 and get 8.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 9 in column 3 and get 15.
We'll write down the last digit 5 and carry the 1 to the next column.

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

So, 603 + 1977 = 2580.
