Answer:
The men already in Garrison = 500
Extra men = 300
Total men now ( 500 + 300 ) = 800 men
500 men provision 24 days
1 men provision 24 x 500 days
800 men provision = 24 x 500 / 800
= 15 days

Answer:
Lets assume one unit of food per man per day.
Thus, total food units = 350 x 25 = 8750
Total food consumed in 5 days = 350 x 5 = 1750
Balance food units = 8750 - 1750 = 7000
Now, 150 men joined the garrison i.e. total men = 350 + 150 = 500
Number of days food is remaining = 7000 / 500 = 14 days
