Answer:

  • Option A: 500 pages

Explanation:

1. Number of pages of the first 5 novels

  • Average = [Number of pages] / [number of novels]

  • 450 pages / novel = Number of pages / 5 novels

  • Number of pages = 5 novels × 450 pages / novel = 2,250 pages

2. Average length of all 6 novels

  • Average = [Number of pages] / [number of novels]

  • Number of pages of 6 novels = 2,250 pages + 750 pages = 3,000 pages

  • Average = 3,000 pages / 6 novels = 500 pages / novel
