From 1 - 99, the digit 1 occurs 20 times, and from 100 - 199, the digit 1 occurs 120 times. So, from 1 to 199, the digit 1 occurs - 20 + 120 = 140 times According to question 1 is occurring only 136 times, which means we need to remove 196, 197, 198, and 199. So, the required number of pages will be 195.
