How? I think the answer is B. As the total time in critical path is maximum.

CP consumes maximum resources and time.

Hence it's longest.

Answer A is completely and absolutely true.

Brahvi said:   8 years ago
Answer is correct.

The Critical path has the longest duration but because of zero slacks which determine the shortest time possible to complete the project.

Hello, everyone.

C.P.M. Consume maximum resources, It the longest path & consume maximum time. The slack or float may be positive, negative or zero. You know if project beyond this critical situation definitely it fails that means there is such route designated you can take maximum time to complete your project but not go beyond. (friend tell me if it consuming max. Resources then how could it completed in minimum time).

Option (b) is correct.

Tekendra said:   7 years ago
I think the correct answer is B.

Utsav said:   7 years ago
B is correct.

Other routes may be short but won't complete the work.

Uttu said:   7 years ago
You can't complete the project in time less than critical time.

So it's the minimum time you need even if you provide more resources.

A is correct.
