Steps to install PHP (as per instructions on https://www.tecmint.com/install-different-php-versions-in-ubuntu/)

sudo apt install php - This installs PHP 7.3

sudo apt install software-properties-common - This was already there when I tried.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php - Installs the popular repo for setting up multiple PHP versions

sudo apt install php7.3 and sudo apt install php7.4 - Installs PHP 7.3 and PHP 7.4
