Answer:

300°

Step-by-step explanation:

This may seem really strange and counterintuitive to you, but when you turn 1° 300 times, you have turned 300°.

_____

If you don't want to add it up ...

1° + 1° + 1° ... + 1° . . . . . 300 times

you can use multiplication. It was invented as a shortcut to repeated addition:

1° × 300 = 300°
