Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The critical path is the longest path in the PERT network and includes all activities that must be completed on time for the project to finish as scheduled. Therefore, Becca should focus on the activities on the critical path as they have the most potential to cause delays in the project if they are not completed on time.
