First find the unit rate:
1676 miles ÷ 4 days = 419 miles per day.

Use that unit rate to find the time for the whole trip: divide the total distance from the map by 419 miles/day.

(Algebraically: t days = (total distance in miles) ÷ 419.)

If the map distance were 2,095 miles, for example, t = 2,095 ÷ 419 = 5 days.

Tell me the total distance shown on the map and I will compute the exact number of days.
