What version of the OS are you using? What happens if you just run:

set myNumberOfFrames to 36
set myFramesPerPage to 16
set myNumberOfPages to round (myNumberOfFrames / myFramesPerPage) 
rounding up

Very odd...

Anyway, you could always use this instead -- it's even a touch faster:

set myNumberOfPages to (myNumberOfFrames + myFramesPerPage - 1) div 
myFramesPerPage
