First of all find the first number which is multiple of 9 between 300 and 700.

We can easily see that the 306 is the first number divisible by 9

Now last number divisible by 9 can be found out by dividing 700 by 9 and subtracting the remainder from 700.

The last number is 693.

Now we have an AP with 

a=306,l=693  and d=9

l=a+(n-1)d \;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\; \rightarrow \text{formula}

\Rightarrow 693=306+(n-1)9

\Rightarrow 693-306=(n-1)9

\Rightarrow 9(n-1) =387

\Rightarrow (n-1) =\frac{387}{9}=43

\Rightarrow n-1 =43

\Rightarrow n =43+1

\Rightarrow n =44

No. of multiples of 9 between 300 and 700 is 44.
