Which term defines the time for a task/activity to be completed?

Duration is the amount of time required to finish a single task or activity. In project planning, this answers “how long will this task take?” and is separate from the total time to complete the entire project, which aggregates all tasks. It also isn’t about the order in which tasks must be done (that’s sequencing or dependencies) or about tools used in planning (like mood boards). For example, if a task is estimated to take 2 days, its duration is 2 days.
