Consider the following table of arrival time and burst time for three processes P0, P1 and P2.

Process   Arrival time   Burst Time
P0 0 ms 9 ms
P1 1 ms 4 ms
P2 2 ms 9 ms

The pre-emptive shortest job first scheduling algorithm is used. Scheduling is carried out only at arrival or completion of processes. What is the average waiting time for the three processes?

5.0 ms

4.33 ms
