D. 49366

Answer

To solve the expression \( 4 + 444 + 4444 + 44444 \), we will add the numbers step by step.

### Step 1: Write down the numbers
We will first list the numbers we need to add:
- 4
- 444
- 4444
- 44444

### Step 2: Align the numbers for addition
Align the numbers vertically for easier addition:
```
44444
04444
00444
00004
```

### Step 3: Add the numbers column by column
Starting from the rightmost column:

1. **Rightmost column**:
- \( 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16 \)
- Write down 6 and carry over 1.

2. **Second column from the right**:
- \( 4 + 4 + 4 + 0 + 1 (carry) = 13 \)
- Write down 3 and carry over 1.

3. **Third column from the right**:
- \( 4 + 4 + 0 + 0 + 1 (carry) = 9 \)
- Write down 9.

4. **Fourth column from the right**:
- \( 4 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 4 \)
- Write down 4.

5. **Fifth column from the right**:
- \( 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0 \)
- Write down 0.

### Step 4: Combine the results
Now, we combine the results from each column:
- From the rightmost column: 6
- Second column: 3
- Third column: 9
- Fourth column: 4
- Fifth column: 0

Putting it all together, we get:
\[ 49336 \]

### Final Answer
Thus, the value of \( 4 + 444 + 4444 + 44444 \) is \( \boxed{49336} \).
