    The correct answer is C.

    Path 1 – Start 1, 2, 3, End
    Path 2 – Start, 1, 2, 5, End
    Path 3 – Start 1, 4, 5, End

    Path 1 would take 4 + 8 + 5 days or 17 days to complete.
    Path 2 would take 4 + 8 + 3 days or 15 days to complete.
    Path 3 would take 4 + 8 + 3 days or 15 days to complete.
    Therefore, Path 1 is critical path
