Answer:

2,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 100 × 5 = 500, so one page has 500 names on it, we can now then infer that each book has 100,000 names on it because we do 500 × 200.

So knowing that there is 100,000 names per book we now then do 100,000 × 2,000 which equals 200,000,000, so we need to do 2,000 books to store the names of 200 million people. Hope this helps.
