    We will use the sum of natural number series formula

    if S=1+2+3+4 + ... + n, then

    S = n (n+1) / 2

    Now, sum of all + ve integers from 0 to 400 is given by

    S=0+1+2+3 + ... + 400

    => S=400 (400+1) / 2;

    =>S=80200;

    Sum of all + ve integers divisible by 5 is given by

    R=0+5+10+15+20+25+30 + ... + 400

    R=5 (1+2+3+4+5+6 + ... + 80)

    R=5*80 (80+1) / 2

    R=16200;

    therefore the sum of all + ve integers <400 and not divisible by 5=S-R=64000
