P, which is the final process, can only start if all the other processes are completed. P takes 6 days. Further, it is known that processes can be carried out simultaneously. 1) The process can be completed earliest in how many days? (a) 21 days (b) 22 days (c) 26 days (d) 27 days 2) A new machine is bought which halves the time for process R. If the whole process is completed in the minimum possible time, what per cent of the time is spent doing exactly one of the process? 3) A new machine is bought which reduces the time for S by half, then in
