It depends on how you count them.

If you want to consider LotR as a single book you can only count the number printed and read of that one volume with the lowest number printed/read. You can't total the printed/read numbers for the 3 volumes and have numbers that can be compared to single volume works. If 10million of each volume have been printed/read then the total for printed/read is 10million, not 30million.
