Hello everyone! Here is this week's free PMP® exam sample question from the PM Exam Simulator.

A. 30 Days
B. 20 Days
C. 18 Days
D. 10 Days

Answer and Explanation:
The correct answer is C.

The PERT estimation formula is [Optimistic + (4 x Most Likely) + Pessimistic] /6 = [10 + (4x16) + 30] /6 = 104/6 = 17.33 days, so the best answer is 18 days.
