Which of these would most likely be one of the final steps when performing a strong acid-base titration?

A titration begins with setup steps such as preparing the burette and recording its initial volume. During the titration, base is added while the solution is monitored for changes, especially near the endpoint. Thus, observing changes as base is added is most likely one of the final steps among these choices; the other options occur before the titration proceeds.
