2 pages in each book

RK001: how?
RK001: there is only one book.....
yashika4321: because there were six books left and 12 pages were remaining so each book have 2 pages
RK001: you are not understanding the question...... book is only one
yashika4321: OK I understand
yashika4321: I made some Mistake in reading
RK001: yes
RK001: I will answer myself.
RK001: 2/7 was read so 5/7 must be unread on 1st day.
2nd day 4/5 was read out of 5/7=4/5*5/7
= 20/35
=4/7
Remaining pages unread =12
So 12 must be 1/7 of total pages(P)
P/7=12
P=12*7
=56 pages.
