Hope it helps!! Mark this answer as brainliest if u found it useful and follow me for quick and accurate answers...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the initial number of men then,
According to the question,
5X = X + (X - 10) + (X - 20) + (X - 30) + (X - 40) + (X - 50)
⇒ 5X = 6X - 150
⇒ 6X - 5X = 150
⇒ X = 150 men
