Juestion A Project that involves several Activities has Effort Time Estimations as given in the following table. Find the Estimated Time Duration for each Activity in each of the following Cases: Activity A|B|C|D| E|F/G Effort Time (hours) [2 [65[12[3 [25/1 [10 Percentage of Regular Interruptions is 20%, and Unplanned Interruptions Percentage is 30%. i=20%=0.2 , j=30%=0.3 put A For Activity A. p=8.2= Jkour For Activity E 25 For Activity B p=%.2.5 =[4464]hour For Activity F p= 241 =[1.786] hour p =%.6.5 = [11.607] hour For Activity C b=3+12 =[21. 425] hour For Activity G For Activity D p=%.10 = [17.86] hour p= #43 = [5387] hour Percentage of Time devoted to Work is 60%, and Unplanned Interruptions Percentage is 35%.
