no of days = (250*25)/(250+50) = 6250/300 =20.83 days

   no.of students         days
           250                   25 
after 50 students come            
           300                    a
(more student, less no.of days the food will last)-Indirect variation
250x25=300xa
6250/300=a
20.833333=a or approx 20.8=a
THerefore, if there are 300 students the food will last for 20.8 days.
