How many weeks will it take to complete the project?
____ Number of weeks
| ACTIVITY | IMMEDIATE PREDECESSOR | TIME (WEEKS) |
| A | — | 1 |
| B | A | 4 |
| C | A | 3 |
| D | B | 2 |
| E | C, D | 5 |
| F | D | 2 |
| G | F | 2 |
| H | E, G | 3 |
Solution
Activity A, 1 week
Now Activity B takes 4 weeks
Hence total time = 1+4 = 5 weeks
Now Activity C takes 3 weeks but also before that Activity A takes 1 week hence Activity C will be completed in 4 weeks
Now Activity D will be completed in (2+4+1) = 7 weeks
Activity E will be completed in (5+3+1+2+4+1) = 16 weeks
Activity F will be completed in (2+2+4+1) = 9 weeks
Activity G will be completed in (2+2+2+4+1) = 11 weeks
Activity H will be completed in (3+11+16) = 30 weeks
Total number of weeks to complete the project = 1+4+5+4+7+16+9+11+30 = 87 weeks
