                A is correct answer 1-2-3-4-8-9.

                According to me, Option A is the correct answer.

                The critical path has the longest path and consumes maximum time and maximum resource 
So option B is correct.
1-2-3-5-6-7-8-9 = 24.
                So option B is correct.
1-2-3-5-6-7-8-9 = 24.

                The critical path consist of the longest path duration 1-2-3-5-6-7-8-9 is 24 units.

                Critical path is one, which consumes more time to complete. By this way, I can choose option B. The dummy loop is unaccountable.

                A dummy activity can only become critical when its EST is the same as its LFT.
That's why D2 is considered critical and D1 is not.
So, Option B is right.

                Option B is the right answer.

                A dummy activity can be either critical or non-critical. It becomes a critical activity when the earlier start time and the latest finish time are equal.

                How to find the dummy activity? Anyone explain it.
