An average rate of an adult reader (untrained in speed reading) is said to be two words per second, or 120 words per minute, or 7200 words an hour. If they read for 10 hours in a day, that would make about 72 000 words (seventy two thousand).
When you read, your eye skips across the line, pausing every few words. The better you are at reading, the fewer pauses you make, and the more words you can take in in one glance.
Some people can read at 10 or 12 words per second, or even faster, though it depends on the simplicity or difficulty of the text. For them their total for a ten hour day would be closer to 400 000 words (four hundred thousand).
