Question

Mauricio, a project manager at a reputed firm, has been assigned to handle a new project that the firm has received. This project involves a lot of scheduling that has to be handled by Mauricio. Mauricio estimates that the first module of the project could be completed in as few as 15 days or could take as many as 25 days, but most likely will require 20 days. Determine the expected task duration.​

Answer 1

Answer:

20 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected Task duration

= (O + 4 M + P)/6

Where O = best case scenario = 15 days

P = worst case scenario = 25 days

M = Usual scenario = 20 days

Therefore, expected task duration

= [15 + 4 (20) + 25] ÷ 6

= 120 ÷ 6

= 20 days.

Therefore expected task duration is 20 days.
