The acid-catalyzed addition of alcohols to alkenes occurs


Question- The acid-catalyzed addition of alcohols to alkenes occurs via a mechanism analogous to acid-catalyzed alkene hydration. The reaction occurs in 3 steps: 1) Addition of H+ to the alkene, together with any possible carbocation rearrangements; 2) Addition of the alcohol to the carbocation; 3) Deprotonation to yield the product ether. Draw the product of step 2 when 4-methyl-1-pentene reacts with methanol in the present of H2SO4 catalyst.

I am in need please provide me complete solution for the above problem so I can get right solution
