You are given the following information about a project consisting of six activities: \begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|} \hline Activity & Immediate Predecessors & Estimated Duration (Months) \\ \hline A & - & 5 \\ \hline B & - & 1 \\ \hline C & B & 2 \\ \hline D & A, C & 4 \\ \hline E & A & 6 \\ \hline F & D, E & 3 \\ \hline \end{tabular} a) Construct the project network for this project. b) Find the earliest times latest times, and slack for each activity. Which of the paths is a critical path? c) If all other activities take the estimated amount of time. What is the maximum duration of activity \( \mathrm{D} \) without delaying the completion of the project?

The following represents a project with known activity times. All times are in weeks. Activity Immediate Predecessor Time A - 5 B - 3 C A 3 D B 6 E C,D 4 F B 5 G E,F 4 a) Using the data in the Table, what is the minimum possible time required for completing the project? b) Using the data in the Table, what is the latest possible time that C may be started without delaying completion of the project? c) Using the data in the Table, determine the latest time activity A can be finished and not delay any activity? d) Using the data in the Table, compute the latest finish time for activity E.
