Answer:

450-3x

Explanation:

He starts with a container filled with 450 grams. Each day, he removes 3 grams to make a cup of tea. In other words, every day, he subtracts 3 grams from the total 450 grams.

450-3x

This would be our expression. He starts with 450, and every day, x, removes 3 grams.
