Use the project described in the table to determine the total resources required for activity D if a worker is expected to work half-time (four hours per day)on this project. $$\begin{array} { | l | l | l | }
\hline \text { Activity } & \text { Duration } & \text { Predecessor } \
\hline \mathrm { A } & 5 \text { days } & - \

First, we need to calculate the total work required for Activity D:

Total work required for Activity D = Duration of Activity D x Number of workers required per day

Duration of Activity D = 6 days

Number of workers required per day if one worker works full-time on this project = 8 hours per day

Number of workers required per day if one worker works half-time on this project = 4 hours per day

Total work required for Activity D = 6 days x 4 hours per day = 24 hours

Therefore, the total resources required for activity D if a worker is expected to work half-time (four hours per day) on this project is 24 hours.
