Question

Please show step by step how to solve this. 

Assume, 

X = Z

Y = A

Z = H

Find the earliest start, earliest finish, latest start and latest finish time using CPM method
for all of the following activities and also show the critical path:
Task
Duration (days) Dependencies
T1
10
T2
X+1
T1
T3
Y +1
T4
7
T1, T3
T5
Z+1
T4
T6
3
TN
T7
4
T4, T6
Where,
X = alphabetic order of the 1st letter of your sur/last name
Y = alphabetic order of the 2nd letter of your sur/last name
Z = alphabetic order of the 3rd letter of your sur/last name
N=((X+1) % (Z+1)) +1 [%indicates modulus operator, example: (5%2)=1, (2%7)–2].
If the value of N>-6, then consider N=5.
N.B.: Make sure you write down your sure/last name at first and also the values of X, Y,
Z and N. Then, write down the revised table according to those values. Finally, perform
CPM analysis based on the revised table.
