ANSWER
Pages number 7 and 8 are in one sheet, so that’s two pages.
Page 100 is in the same sheet with page 99 so making it two pages also.
Page 101 is also in the same sheet with page 102, so tearing 101 you will also tear page 102, thereby making it two pages.
Page 222 is the back page of 221 on one sheet making it two pages.
Same thing goes to page 223 as the front page of 224 making it two pages.
So the boy tore a total number of ten pages.
