Q.23
Pick up the incorrect statement from the following:
The difference between the earliest start time and latest finish time of any activity, is the maximum time available for the activity
The difference between the maximum time available for the job and actual time it consumes, is called total float
The difference between the latest start time and earliest start time of an activity, is called total float
None of these

Q.25
Pick up the correct statement from the following:
The duration between the earliest start time of the preceding event and latest finish time of the succeeding event, is called 'float'
The duration of time by which an activity can be delayed without affecting the succeeding activity, is called free float
The difference between total float and free float, is called interfering float
