Assume there are three processes A, B and C. All processes are submitted for execution at the same time. The process A executes for 2 milliseconds and then does I/O for 3 milliseconds and then executes for 3 milliseconds more. The process B executes for 4 milliseconds and then does I/O for 7 milliseconds.  The process C executes for 2 millisecond and then does I/O for 4 milliseconds. Assume no contention for the resources and the order of execution (priority) is A, B and C. What would be the total job duration, if these processes were executed on a multi-processor system with two processors?
