The reasons for the steps but show specifically telling you those steps could be:

Multiplicative Inverse of P;
Additive Inverse of 1;
Multiplicative Inverse of n.

To use Distributive Property first on the right side for P will add unnecessary steps to the solving process. Do not use this property here.
