Question

In network analysis using the Critical Path Method (CPM), the critical path is the one with

• A. The longest duration
• B. Total float
• C. Maximum resources
• D. Negative float

Hint:

Critical path characteristics: \[ \boxed{ \text{Longest Duration} \quad\text{and}\quad \text{Zero Float}. } \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Recall the definition of the critical path. The critical path is the sequence of activities that determines the minimum completion time of the project.

Step 2: State its characteristic. It is the path having \[ \boxed{\text{the longest total duration}} \] and zero total float. Hence, \[ \boxed{(A)} \] is the correct answer.
