Heya,
Since PHP 7.4 might not be available in the default Ubuntu 18.04 repositories, you can add a third-party repository that has the package.
sudo apt -y install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
sudo apt update
Now you can install PHP 7.4 along with some common extensions that you might need.
sudo apt install php7.4
If you need additional extensions, you can install them using apt. For example, to install MySQL and GD extensions:
sudo apt install php7.4-mysql php7.4-gd
