Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If a task must be completed by Friday and takes 3 days, starting from Wednesday, which of the following is the latest possible start day?
  • Step 1: Identify the deadline for the task, which is Friday.
  • Step 2: Determine how many days the task takes to complete, which is 3 days.
  • Step 3: Count backwards from the deadline (Friday) to find the latest possible start day.
  • Step 4: If you start on Friday, the task will take Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, which means it will not be completed by the deadline.
  • Step 5: If you start on Thursday, the task will take Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, which also means it will not be completed by the deadline.
  • Step 6: If you start on Wednesday, the task will take Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, which means it will be completed by the deadline.
  • Step 7: Conclude that the latest possible start day is Wednesday, as starting on Thursday or Friday does not meet the deadline.
  • Time Management – Understanding deadlines and the duration of tasks to determine the latest possible start date.
  • Date Calculation – Calculating the end date based on the start date and duration of the task.
