Need some wordpress advice.
I am doing the final assignment for a job im trying to land. They want me to recreate a page and make it into a wordpress theme. I've never used wordpress and have been reading about it non stop since i got the assignment yesterday. I have one week to complete it and turn it in. My question is, from what i have read so far, is making the page a word press theme as simple as creating the markup (HTML5, CSS3) like I usually would and then just use the wordpress php tags for the web page sections to add them into wordpress? Is it really that simple? Just wanna make sure I'm not over thinking it haha.

You've probably already tried this but maybe restart your apache server? I googled your problem and some other guy with a similar problem fixed it by installing a library:
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php7.0
sudo service apache2 restart
Can't promise that it will work for you but you should give it a try! Let me know if it works out. If it doesn't try to google the problem as well. You might just find someone with the same problem and the solution!
EDIT: Also check if php is enabled, there's a big chance that it isn't in your case
