An equation and the steps to solve it are shown below:

3x − one over two (8x − 2) = 4

Step 1: 3x − 4x + 1 = 4
Step 2: x + 1 = 4
Step 3: x + 1 − 1 = 4 − 1
Step 4: x = 3

Which step was the error made and why?

A: Step 1, because incorrect signs have been used

B: Step 2, because the terms have been added incorrectly

C:Step 3, because numbers have been added to both sides of the equation

D: No error was made
