How it's used
Refers specifically to the numerical count of pages or the label indicating the position of a page. While often used interchangeably with 頁 in casual speech, it is more precise when discussing the total length of a document or a specific index number. It is standard in both formal office settings and casual requests for information.

Common mistake
Avoid using 頁數 when you simply want to refer to a single page; use 頁 instead. For example, saying 睇呢個頁數 is unnatural if you mean look at this specific page.
