When comparingtotal scope (story points)andvelocity, you can calculate the number of sprints each team expects:
* Team A: 420 / 30 = 14 sprints
* Team B: 280 / 20 = 14 sprints
Even though the story points are different,both teams estimate the same number of sprints, which means they estimatesimilar effort and durationrelative to their own internal baselines. This aligns with the concept thatstory points are relative and not comparable across teams.
PMI Agile Practice Guide (Section 5.4: Velocity and Relative Estimation)andMike Griffiths' PMI-ACP Exam Prep Book (Chapter 6: Adaptive Planning)explain that velocity is ateam-specific measureand cannot be directly compared between teams.
* Option Dis correct: both teams have estimated thesame project size in their own context.
* Options A and Bincorrectly compare velocity between teams.
* Option Cis irrelevant; velocity is based on team experience, not technology assumptions.
