How is percent complete determined?

  1. By the amount of budget spent

  2. By the amount of time passed

  3. By the amount of work completed

  4. By the amount of resources used

The correct answer is: By the amount of work completed

Percent complete is determined by the amount of work completed. This is because the percentage of work completed is a direct representation of the progress made on the project or task. Monitoring the actual work completed compared to the planned work helps project managers track the project's progress accurately. In contrast, options A, B, and D do not directly measure the progress of the work completed and are therefore not accurate ways of determining percent complete in project management.
