In the critical path method, total float (or slack) is the amount of time an activity can be delayed without affecting the project's final completion date. Activities with zero total float are considered critical activities and lie on the project's critical path. Any delay in a critical activity will directly delay the overall project completion date. The other options are incorrect. An activity with zero float does not necessarily require more resources, nor does its status indicate it is ahead of schedule. An activity with a flexible start date would have a positive float value.
