answer is C Most likely time because while calculating grant chart or PERT the normal time means the expected time calculation for which the activity will probably complete so in normal condition it can be called even expected time = (a +4m+b)/6

 

Optimistic time: a

Most likely time: m=normal time also

Pessimistic time: b

I believe its (c) the most likely time you have given for the task to be finished give or take; at normal conditions you can estimate the time you need to finish the task in hand.....at normal conditions optimism and pessimism are not in need. Extreme conditions taken external or internal factors for a task to be completed under the pessimistic time or optimistic time is most probably something you cant control.
