Sanjay uses the steps below to solve the equation 4 p + two-fifths (10 + 2 p) = 8. Step 1 Multiply both sides of the equation by Five-halves.
4 p + 10 + 2 p = 20
Step 2 Simplify like terms.
6 p + 10 = 20
Step 3 Subtract 10 on both sides of the equation.
6 p = 10
Step 4 Divide both sides of the equation by 6.
p = StartFraction 10 over 6 EndFraction = Five-thirds = 1 and two-thirds

Which is the first error that Sanjay made when finding the solution?
In step 1, he multiplied by Five-halves instead of by Two-fifths.
In step 1, he did not multiply 4p by Five-halves when multiplying both sides by Five-halves.
In step 3, he should have added 10 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 10.
In step 3, he should have divided both sides by 6 instead of subtracting 10.
