1st day:
{{{d}}}
2nd day:
{{{d + 6}}}
3rd day:
{{{d + 12}}}
4th day:
{{{d + 18}}}
given:
{{{d + d + 6 + d + 12 + d + 18 = 444}}}
{{{4d + 36 = 444}}}
{{{4d = 408}}}
{{{d = 102}}}
{{{d + 6 = 108}}}
{{{d + 12 = 114}}}
{{{d + 18 = 120}}}

108 miles the 2nd day
114 miles the 3rd day, and
120 miles the 4th day
