Alternative method of solving:

50 kg moves upward hence
T = 50(g+a).

75 kg moves downwards hence
T = 75(g-a).

By solving we get;
a = g/5=2 m/sec2.
T = 50(10+2) = 600N = 60 kg.

2m1*m2/m1+m2.
m1=50.
m2=75.
2(50)(75)/50+75.
=> 60.

Right. Thanks @Pbhavik.

2*(m1)*(m2)*g ÷ (m1+m2).

m1= 75 m2= 50 g=9.81.
Ans= 588.6N,
Convert 588.6/9.81 = 60.
