Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gantt charts are useful to monitor the progress of each job and sequence work on each machine. They are a graphical representation of the project schedule that helps to plan, coordinate and track specific tasks and activities of a project. Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Option A and B are incorrect as they only partially describe the uses of Gantt charts. Option D is irrelevant to Gantt charts as they do not provide any information about the number of defective parts generated by a machine.
