Answer:

Day 3:110 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Day 1: x pages

Day 2: 2 times x pages

Day 3: x-6 pages

Total:458 pages

[tex]x + 2x + x - 6 = 458 \\ 4x - 6 = 458 \\ 4x = 458 + 6 \\ 4x = 464 \\ x = \frac{464}{4 } \\ x = 116[/tex]

On the third day he read 116-6=110 pages.

Hope this helped :)
