Solution

Remaining number of men = 250-50 =200 men

Remaining number of days = (350-25) days = 325 days.

250 men had provisions for 325 days

1 man had provisions for (250 × 325) days

200 men had provisions for $\frac{(250 \times 325)}{200}$ days

= 406.25days =406 days

hence, the remaining food will last for 406 days.
