Explanation

10 men's work per day = 1/150. In 5 days, they complete 5/150 = 1/3 work. Remaining 2/3 work done by (10 men + 10 women) in 5 days, so their combined work = 2/75 per day. 10 women's work = 2/75 - 1/150 = 1/150. So each woman does same work as each man. 25 women's work per day = 25/150 = 1/6. Time = 1 / (1/6) = 6 days.
