What is the critical path for this project? How do you know?
What will be an ideal response?
The critical path is 1-2-4-6-8. Microsoft Project provides a detailed Gantt chart view that highlights the critical path. Of course, if you calculate the path using the manual method in the chapter, the answer will be the same. Notice that the critical path has no “slack” time. There any delay in a task on the path will push out the completion date. In this example, Task 7 is interesting. It looks like it is on the critical path, but actually it is not, as you can see in the Gantt chart. In this case, the Gantt chart is actually easier to interpret than the network diagram.
