As per PERT method,
Expected time = (Optimistic time + 4*Most Likely Time + Pessimistic time)/ 6
Expected time = (1.5 hours + 4* 2 hours + 7 hours)/ 6 = 2.75 hours or 2 hours 45 minutes.
Based on the calculated expected time of 2 hours 45 minutes starting from noon. Hence, you will be able to complete the project around expected time of 2:45 PM and likely to leave work even before 3 PM (not exactly at 3 PM though).
If you like my answer , please give thumbs up. Thank you.

Project Schedules and Scheduling Tools In this assignment, you will create a schedule for the month of December of this year for your team members—John, Sally, Pedro, and Eunice. While creating the schedule, keep in mind the following conditions: Every employee in the company needs to work for 45 hours per week. John works from Saturdays to Wednesdays in the 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. shift, with a 1-hour lunch break. Sally works from Mondays to Thursdays in the 3:00...
