Answer:

[tex]500\ Pages = 228000[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Pages = 500[/tex]

[tex]Lines = 38[/tex]

[tex]Words = 12[/tex]

Required

Determine the number of words in the book

First, we need to calculate the number of words in a page.

[tex]1\ Page = Words * Lines[/tex]

[tex]!\ Page = 12 * 38[/tex]

[tex]1\ Page = 456[/tex]

Next, we calculate number of words in 500 pages

Multiply both sides by 500

[tex]500 * 1\ Page = 456 * 500[/tex]

[tex]500\ Pages = 228000[/tex]

Hence, there are 228000 words in the book
