    30000

    Step-by-step explanation:

    all positive integers less than 300 (300 exclusive)

    1,2,3,4,5 ... 149,150,151 ... 296,297,298,299

    there are (1+299) (2+298) (3+297) ... (149+151) 149 pairs of 300 + 150

    300 x 149 + 150 = 44850

    all positive integers less than 300 which are divisible by 3

    3,6,9,12 ... 294,297 i. e. 3 x (1,2,3,4 ... 49,50,51 ... 97,98,99)

    3 x ((100 x 49) + 50) = 3 x 4950 = 14850

    Answer: 44850 - 14850 = 30000
