*18.   DEF A/C Remodelers has contracted to reconfigure the interior of a large corporate A/C.  The project manager has determined that there are 11 steps to the process.  In consultation with the project foreman he has determined the sequence and precedent for the 11 events, labeled A - K, and has estimated the optimistic, expected, and pessimistic job times, labeled a, m, and b, respectively.  These times, in days, and precedence are given in the table below.
