                1) Most Likely time: Most frequently occur if the activity were repeated many times.
2) Pessimistic Time: The shortest possible time to complete the activity if everything is going right.
3) Optimistic Time: The longest possible time to complete the activity if everything is going wrong.
Probabilistic time (Mean of the above three Times) is calculated by given formula.
                2) Pessimistic Time: The shortest possible time to complete the activity if everything is going right.
3) Optimistic Time: The longest possible time to complete the activity if everything is going wrong.
Probabilistic time (Mean of the above three Times) is calculated by given formula.
