84 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Remaining number of men =(300−50)=250.
Remaining number of days =(90−20)days=70 days
300 men had provisions for 70 days
1 man had provisions for (300×70) days ...[less men, more days]
250 men had provisions for 250300×70 days =84 days ...[more men, less days]
Hence, the remaining food will last for 84 days.
