Let's assume that the total number of pages in the book is "x" pages.

To find the mean (average) we divide the total "x" by 11 because there are 11 chapters in the book, which would equal to 36.


(x)/(11) = 36

Multiply both sides by 11...
x = 396

The total number of pages in the 11 chapters is 396.
