Each page (one sided) in novel format averages 250 words. Of course this depends on the amount of dialogue. But the average is 250. So if you're writing something on any sort of word processor and want to know how many pages as a novel it would be than go to 'tools', then 'word count'. Take the number given by the word count and pull up the 'calculator' tool, then take the number of words divided by 250, and you have your answer.
Now you have your wordcount estimate, which is the standard way to talk about a book's length. Contemporary novels tend to go about 80-100k, fantasy gets to be a bit longer, while YA fiction tends to cap at 75k. If you have 200 words on every hand-written page, you'll have a half-novel of 40,000 words. I have a novella of 40k that measures 137 pages on a 6x9 paperback. (292 words per page.). Most fiction paperback books average about 250-350 words per page. The Hobbit is about 95,000 words. My paperback copy of The Hobbit is 303 pages, so with a bit of math we find it clocks 313.5 words a page. You can also get a feel for how type, margins, and dimensions change the page count by googling some of the well known titles on your shelf.
