The answer is the fragment with 300 base pairs length. Gel electrophoresis separates DNA fragments (and other biomolecules chains) by their lengths. On theone hand, the small fragments are able to travel fast through the pores in the gel. On the other hand, the larger the fragments, the slower they travel along the gel due to the obstacle of passing through the small pores.
