In simple terms, think of this way
Free Float- It is the time by how much it can be delayed before the subsequent task is not impacted, meaning the subsequent task is not delayed until this time gap.
Total Float- It is the time by how much it can be delayed before the project completion date is not impacted, meaning the project is not delayed.
