Solution
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\phantom{...}\ce{CH3}\phantom{..............................}\ce{CH3}\phantom{..............................}\ce{CH3}\\
|\phantom{..................................}|\phantom{.................................}|\\
\ce{\underset{(A)}{\underset{(C4H8)}{\underset{2-Methylprop-1-ene}{H3C - C = CH2 + HCl}}} ->[Markovnikov][rule] H3C - C - CH3 ->[KOH (aq_.)Hydrolysis][\Delta] H3C - C - CH3}\\
