Slack represents the difference between the-

A.

Proposed allowable time and the earliest expected time

B.

Latest allowable time and the earliest expected time

C.

Latest allowable time and the normal expected time

D.

Normal allowable time and the latest expected time

Correct option is B

In project management, slack, also known as float, is the amount of time that a task can be delayed without causing a delay to subsequent tasks or the overall project completion date. Specifically, slack is calculated as the difference between the latest allowable start time and the earliest expected start time for a task. If a task has zero slack, it is on the critical path, meaning any delay in this task will directly delay the project's completion.
