Let the number be x.

According to the question the equation is :

                        7x\ +\ 50\ +\ 40\ =\ 300

or                                   7x\ +\ 90\ =\ 300

or                                                 7x\ =\ 300\ -\ 90\ =\ 210

or                                                   x\ =\ 30

Hence the number is 30.
