The fnish time for the project will be 15 weeks, which is the EF for
activity H.
Finish
Latest Times
the latest start time for an activity determines the latest finish
time for its immediate predecessors. If an activity is the
immediate predecessor for two or more activities, it must be
finished so that all following activities can begin by their latest
start times.

For activity C, which is the immediate predecessor for two activities (E &

for E & F activity.
