It depends on how long the chapters are and how quickly a person reads.

But here's an example on how to figure it out.

Say a book has 9 pages average per chapter.

To do the math:

There's an average of 300 words per page and there's 9 pages in a chapter...

2,700 words per chapter

On average, people read 12,000 words per hour.

12,000 x 3 = 36,000

Thus, people read 36,000 words in 3 hours.

So 36,000 words divided by 2,700 words per chapter...

13 chapters.
