Question text
Consider the following table of activities that describes a project network. Without
causing the critical path to become noncritical or otherwise wasting money, by how
many days max could you crash this project? Assume you can crash only one activity at
a time and that crashing is necessary regardless of cost. You do not want to crash the
critical path(s) beyond the point where it (they) is no longer critical as this will not reduce
project duration.
