The percent value-added time is the amount of time spent on activities that directly add value for the customer or in this case, the student. In this cycle, the value-added time is low since the student is waiting for a response from the professor and not actively learning or progressing in the class. The other options, such as determining the cycle time or measuring the efficiency and productivity of the professor, are not relevant or applicable in this scenario.
