        Notice that I edited your post to make more sense in using English words.

        The solution and the answer in the post by @mananth are incorrect.
        So, I came to make the whole job accurately.


x number of days
Super saver 100+5x
Best Deal 150+3x

100+5x > 150+3x

2x > 50
x > 50/2 = 25 days.         ANSWER
