The total project time and all the critical paths.
Answer to Problem 1SE
The total project time is
Explanation of Solution
The given network diagram does not have any arrows.
Thus, by default consider all the edges are directed from left to right.
The possible paths are,
Obtain the total time taken for the paths
Obtain the total time taken for the paths
Obtain the total time taken for the paths
Obtain the total time taken for the paths
Obtain the total time taken for the paths
Obtain the total time taken for the paths
The total project time is the largest time taken among the all possible paths.
Thus, the total project time is,
The path which takes more time to complete the task is called the critical path.
Therefore, the critical path is
