[All PMI-SP Questions]

Examine the figure given below.

In this project network diagram, what is the total float for Activity I?

AThree

BZero

CFive

DOne

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

The float for Activity I is three days. The early start for Activity I is Day 17 and the late start for

Activity I is Day 20. Therefore, the difference of

the early start and the late start reveals the float as three days. It is possible, and acceptable, to use

the difference of the early finish and the late finish to find the float, as the value will be the same

amount. Answer options B, D, and C are incorrect. These are not the valid calculation for the total

float.

Five? Really? That seems way too high. I'm going with B - zero. After all, this is a project management exam, not a guessing game. *chuckles*
