From the given scenario, the expression must show that from a total of 1,700 miles distance to be covered, it will be deducted by 300 miles multiplied by the number of days Miles travels since she is planning to cover 300 miles each day.

The expression will be,


\text{ 1,700 - 3}00d

Where d = number of days.
