May be its a stupid question - but why are we not considering negative integers here? The questions says three digit integers!

A good question that illustrates the need to know certain simple but important formulae when it comes to topics such as Counting and Probability.

I solved using Bunuel's mathematical approach as well. Nothing more to add.

Nos. divided by 3 between 100 and 999 (including); starting 102,105....till 999 are {(999-102=897/3)+1 }=300
Therefore, nos. not divided by 300 between 100 & 999 = {(total nos between 100&999 ) minus nos. divided by 3}= [ {(999-100)+1}-300]=600
