a) Calculate each activity duration using the last digit of your student number. For example, if your number is EMBA 2001524, the last digit is 4 and for activity A the duration is 7+1*4=11. b) Draw a project network diagram (AON), given the following information. c) Complete the forward and backward pass, d) Compute free slack and total slack of each activity e) Identify the critical path.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT The construction industry represents the foundation of every infrastructure thatstands today. Each piece of architecture depicts its time, history, and style. It shows how far humans have gone and how brilliant our minds can build something complex out ofscratch. From past to present-day architecture, it signifies uniqueness and creativity thatmade them remarkable. Today’s architecture requires modern materials to beaccurate and sustainable.With that remark, Bio Industries is proposing Bio-Bricks. Bio-Bricks is anenvironmentally friendly brick that is made up of air-dried animal feces. The animalwastes are specifically from household pets such as dogs and cats, and animals fromfarms to support local farmers. 80% of the ingredient consists of animal feces, and the remaining 20% contains sand to harden the material. Consumers can alsocustomize the brick’s color and shape to satisfy their preferences and to let them expresstheir creativity. What are the…
